The Central Election Commission (CEC) has released preliminary findings concerning the parliamentary election held on April 19. These initial results are based on the processing of 91.68% of the available tally sheets, compiled by the section election commissions and reported to the constituency election commissions as of 10:00 AM on Monday. The preliminary data also identified the specific parties and coalitions that successfully surpassed the mandatory 4% electoral threshold.
According to the established Election Code, the CEC is legally mandated to announce the final vote counts and the subsequent distribution of seats among all participating parties and coalitions no later than four days following the election day. Furthermore, the names of the duly elected Members of Parliament must be officially published within seven days of the election. This electoral process marks the eighth parliamentary election conducted in Bulgaria since 2021.
The ongoing tabulation process, overseen by various levels of the commission, aims to finalize the composition of the new legislative body. The continuous aggregation of the tally sheets by local and central bodies is crucial for validating the final results and ensuring transparency throughout the post-election period. The commission’s adherence to these procedural timelines is central to the democratic conclusion of the election.
