Six parties look like entering the next National Assembly, according to a survey conducted in the period from 23 to 31 October by Gallup International and commissioned by the news website OffNews.bg.

The percentages given by the respondents are as follows:

• GERB - 24.2%
• Bulgarian Socialist Party - 15.7%
• We Continue the Change – 13.7%
• There Is Such a People – 11.3%
• Movement for Rights and Freedoms – 11.1%
• Democratic Bulgaria 9.8%

The parties remaining below the 4% electoral threshold for entering parliament are Vuzrazhdane with 3.3% and Stand Up,BG! We Are Coming! with 3.1%.

Sociologists say that the Covid-19 situation and the machine vote could affect the older voters and this could alter the balance between the Bulgarian Socialist Party and We Continue the Change.

• Rumen Radev 47.6%
• Anastas Gerdzhikov 25.1%
• Mustafa Karadayi 8.5%

The elections for National Assembly and for President are scheduled for 14 November.
