A study of "Alpha Research" indicates that the number of people who want to use their right to vote in the presidential elections on November 6 in Bulgaria increased in October by about 7% compared to the level of September. Currently, agencies forecast that voter turnout will be about 61% of Bulgarian residents, or about 3.5 million. So far, supporters of leftist BSP, ABV and Movement 21 show higher activity. There is more hesitation but also higher electoral reserve when the supporters of ruling GERB, Reform Bloc and the Patriotic Front are considered.
