If parliamentary elections were to be held today the same six political formations would enter the National Assembly as did after the parliamentary elections on 4 April, a Gallup International Balkan survey shows.

GERB would again be first political force with almost 23%, followed by ITN (There Is Such a People) with 20%, the Bulgarian Socialist Party with 16%, Democratic Bulgaria and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms with 11% each and Stand UP! Thugs Out! with almost 6%. 

The nationalist formations which are conducting coalition negotiations - VMRO, Volya and the National Front for the Salvation of Bulgaria, which were represented in the 44th National Assembly, stand a chance of garnering an aggregate result of close to 5% of the votes. 58% of the respondents say they are going to vote, 14% say they will not.
