Support for legal reforms, reluctance to reduce the powers of the president, little support for changing the date of the national holiday or for tolerating dual citizenship in power - this is what the latest Gallup International Balkan survey, conducted in the period August 3 to 11th, 2023 among 807 people by the face-to-face method, showed. 69.3% of those asked want March 3 to remain national holiday and 9.6% want to change it to May 24, as proposed by PP-DB. 

29% are in favor of limiting the powers of presidents in this country when forming caretaker governments, but 44.3% are against this. 61.3% agree that it is good that every Bulgarian citizen has the right to submit an individual constitutional complaint. 65% are against the idea that people with dual citizenship should have the right to be ministers and MPs in Bulgaria.
