A lot of money was spent unlawfully and incorrectly, without taking into account the International Monetary Fund's report and the non-coalition's calls for reasonable spending, GERB leader Boyko Borissov told journalists.

Yesterday, he announced that the Nikolai Denkov’s cabinet had spent in its last days in office about 3 billion Leva (EUR 1.5 billion) from the fiscal reserve. We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria MP Venko Sabrutev described the information as "manipulated’’. "The state has not received all its revenues, but it has made the expenditures it needed to make", Venko Sabritev said, assuring that there was no problem with the fiscal reserve.

The leader of GERB said that he is a firm supporter of machine voting. ‘’I will do everything possible to keep the machines’’, Boyko Borisov said in response to a question whether GERB would demand changes to the Electoral Code before the early parliamentary elections.
