The GERB/SDS coalition will have more seats in the 50th National Assembly – 80, as compared to 69 in the 49th National Assembly. The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) is also expected to have more seats – 41 as compared to 36 in the previous parliament. The sum total of the seats held by the two political forces is 121 which is enough for a parliamentary majority. We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria (PP/DB) are registering a drop – from 64 down to 55 seats in the next parliament.

The Bulgarian Socialist Party is 5th with 8%. Market Links expect to see a 5-party parliament. There Is Such a People (ITN) earns 3.2% of the votes leaving it below the 4% threshold.
