People would like to know in advance what will be put together in the end: a puzzle or a game of chess, Boryana Dimitrova said.
The next parliament will likely be six-party, but with fewer MPs from the smaller parties and a bonus for the larger ones. This is demonstrated by the results of the latest survey by the sociological agency “Alpha Research”, which will be published in the coming days.
As in the previous poll – in October, now the results show that MPs will have parliamentary GERB, BSP and MRF and non-MPs – “There are such people”, “Democratic Bulgaria” and “Stand up bg”, he said in an interview with BNT the managing partner of the sociological agency Boryana Dimitrova. He explained that the result will depend a lot on the date of the elections, because many voters are afraid to go to the polls because of the coronavirus.
According to the sociologist, the latest study shows an interesting characteristic – voters will be combined in voting approaches as in the election in two rounds – it will be guided both by the question “who do we like” (which usually leads in the first round) and of the question “who are we against” (which becomes important for the latter).
The people will not only choose the political force they like, but they will also vote to some extent on the nature of the future government, Dimitrova said, adding that voters who say they want a coalition around the GERB and those around the BSP they are roughly evenly divided.
“Part of the interesting observation from this study is that people would like to know in advance what will eventually come together: a puzzle or a game of chess. In a crisis situation, people want more certainty about the management formula and the leaders, “said the sociologist. He recommended that both large and small parties take this into account in the course of their campaigns.
The rating of the main figures in power has stabilized, while the non-parliamentary opposition has declined, although not dramatically, because “it has not managed to put its issues on the agenda.”
You can recall the results of the October survey here.
