If elections for parliament were to be held today, GERB would earn 23.8% support, We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria (PP/DB) – 17.2%, and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) would be in third position with 12.1% of the votes.

At 9.9%, the results for Vazrazhdane have taken a plunge, but it is still ahead of the Bulgarian Socialist Party which garners 8.5%. There Is Such a People (ITN) would be below the 4% threshold for entering the National Assembly at 3.8%.

None of the above garners 20%. The data are from a representative survey conducted in January by Market Links and presented by bTV.

43% of the respondents expect the government rotation to take place smoothly, with no problems for the parties from the ruling majority, 40% are skeptical, and say that this transition will be problematic.
