The 2-in-1 presidential and parliamentary elections in Bulgarian on November 12 will boost voter turnout, according to a survey funded by bTV and Market Links. 77% of respondents said they would vote. 14 percent said they would not go to the polls, and 9 percent are still hesitant.

If the vote had taken place on September 20, GERB-UDF would have received 22.6% of the vote, the BSP - 14.5%, "There is such a People" and Democratic Bulgaria - respectively 13.5% and 11.9 percent. The new formation "We continue the change" is gaining 10.8% support. 9.8% of the respondents would vote for MRF. "Stand up BG! We are coming" has lost some of its voters and is on the verge of a 4% barrier to entering the new parliament.
