According to 40% of Bulgarians, the best in terms of governance in the near future would be the rotation between Nikolai Denkov and Mariya Gabriel. This is shown in a sociological study by "Alpha Research", conducted between February 27 and March 3, 2024, carried out with own funds among 1,000 adult citizens from all over the country. 

The assessment of the government's activity for 52.9% of those polled is generally negative and Deputy Prime Minister Mariya Gabriel leads the positive assessments ahead of Nikolai Denkov with 34.7% of approval, as Denkov has 23.6% of approval. According to 27% of Bulgarians, it is a good idea to have early parliamentary elections together with the European ones in June, while 16% cannot decide. The negative assessment of the National Assembly is 62%. When it comes to President Rumen Radev, 39% of people have a positive assessment of his work, while 38% have a negative opinion.
