The Central Election Commission (CEC) released preliminary results concerning the parliamentary election held on April 19. These initial findings were compiled based on the processing of 87.23% of the available tally sheets. The data was gathered from section election commissions and subsequently processed at the constituency election commissions, with the figures reported as of 9:00 a.m.
on Monday. These preliminary figures represent the ongoing process following the election. According to the Election Code, the CEC is legally mandated to announce the total votes received and the corresponding distribution of seats among participating parties and coalitions within four days following the election day.
Furthermore, the official announcement of the names of the elected Members of Parliament must be completed no later than seven days after the election. These proceedings mark the eighth parliamentary election conducted in Bulgaria since 2021. The CEC’s methodical review of the tally sheets is crucial for establishing the final mandate.
The preliminary release allows stakeholders to gauge the initial outcomes while the commission works through the remaining documentation to ensure accuracy before finalizing the results for the national legislature.
