Bulgaria is holding its seventh parliamentary election in just over three years amidst ongoing political instability and low voter turnout, with expectations that no party will secure a majority once again. The pro-European GERB party is projected to lead the polls at around 26-27%, followed closely by the reformist PP-DB coalition at approximately 14-15% and the rising pro-Russian Vazrazhdane party at 13-14%. Voter fatigue and disillusionment are expected to result in a record low turnout, possibly lower than June's historic low of 33.4%. Observers predict that the fragmented parliament will hinder the formation of a stable government, as Bulgaria's ongoing political turmoil has delayed essential reforms and EU funding. The election is seen as a continuation of the cycle of instability that began after anti-corruption protests in 2020, with the potential for more populist and nationalist sentiments to gain ground. Analysts warn that the lack of effective governance could further alienate the electorate and lead to increased support for extremist parties.
