At a briefing, former Prime Minister and leader of the GERB party, Boyko Borissov, said that GERB was the first political force at the moment and as such was obliged to propose a government. GERB would invite everyone but if they refused, then GERB would not negotiate with them, BNR reporter Violeta Ashikova informed.

The sharp drop in the votes for "There Is Such a People" - from the first political force in the elections in July to 8-9% in these elections, shows how sensitive Bulgarians are to irresponsibility. After spending millions, we have reached the same result as in July, but now GERB is in a race with "We Continue the Change" instead of "There is Such a people", Borissov said.
