I'm Bartłomiej Paruzel, and I built ElectioMap to map national elections around the world. This is the Bulgaria hub on ElectioMap — it brings together the 2 Bulgaria elections I cover: one with the official results, vote and turnout shares to two decimal places (and, where the electoral authority publishes an official regional breakdown, an interactive map you can explore region by region), plus a preview of the upcoming vote.

The political system of Bulgaria

Bulgaria is a parliamentary republic and European Union member state since 2007. The 240-seat unicameral National Assembly (Narodno Sabranie) is elected by proportional representation from 31 multi-member constituencies, with a 4% electoral threshold. The prime minister leads the government and is appointed by the largest parliamentary grouping; the president is directly elected separately as a largely ceremonial head of state. Bulgaria experienced a prolonged period of political instability from 2021 to 2023, holding six parliamentary elections in three years as no stable coalition could be formed. Anti-corruption protests from 2020-2021 destabilised the GERB party of long-serving PM Boyko Borisov, leading to fragmented parliaments. By 2024-2025, a broader coalition stabilised governance, with GERB remaining the largest party. Bulgaria is a NATO member and aspires to join the Eurozone and the Schengen Area. Key political formations include GERB (centre-right), BSP (Bulgarian Socialist Party, left), Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF, liberal, representing ethnic Turks and Muslims), and anti-establishment parties such as There Is Such a People (ITN) and We Continue the Change (PP). Bulgaria faces challenges including corruption, demographic decline, judicial independence, and energy transition. The Central Election Commission (cik.bg) administers elections.

Elections covered on this page

Each election listed here has its own page with the full breakdown by party or candidate and an interactive map of the result.

How these results are compiled

Every figure on ElectioMap is taken from the official electoral authority for Bulgaria — the national election commission or equivalent body that certifies the count. I enter vote and turnout percentages exactly as published, to two decimal places and without rounding, and show seat totals wherever a chamber is being filled. When ElectioMap covers an election live, the page updates automatically as official figures are released. For the full sourcing and update policy, see Data & Methodology and the Editorial Policy.
