The Central Election Commission (CEC) released preliminary results from the parliamentary election held on April 19. These initial findings are based on the processing of 87.23% of the tally sheets by the section election commissions at the constituency level, as reported at 9 a.m. on Monday.
According to the Election Code, the CEC is mandated to announce the total votes received and the distribution of seats among political parties and coalitions within four days following the election date. Furthermore, the names of the elected Members of Parliament must be officially published no later than seven days after the election. These proceedings marked the eighth parliamentary election in Bulgaria since 2021.
The preliminary release of data from the election commission signals the ongoing tabulation process. The consistent reporting of the tally sheets by various levels of the commission is crucial for the final certification of results. The commission’s adherence to the established timeline is governed by the Election Code, ensuring transparency in the vote counting process.
The current release provides an early overview, while the final certification will follow the stipulated legal deadlines for the announcement of the final seat allocation and the list of elected representatives.
