This party was the ruling party in Bulgaria in 2009-2021 and is headed by former Prime Minister Boyko Borisov. Now this political force will head the country's parliament.

It is followed by the coalition "We Continue the Change and Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB), which received 346,063 votes or 14.203% of support.

In addition to them, four more parties managed to overcome the 4% threshold set by law. The remaining political forces were unable to enter parliament. 82,618 voters during these elections chose the option "I do not support anyone".

According to preliminary data, voter turnout was approximately 38.94%. In other words, 2,570,639 citizens voted.
