Before the start of the official campaign for the regular presidential and early parliamentary elections on November 14, two agencies have published their surveys. According to the own-funded polls by the Centre for Analysis and Marketing and Exacta, GERB-SDS leads by more than 8% ahead of the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP). The former rulers are gaining about 24 percent support. 

The BSP and the parties "There is such a people" and "We continue the change" are fighting for second, third and fourth place with about 15 percent of the vote, according to Exacta.
According to the Centre for Analysis and Marketing, the BSP is firmly second with 15.8%, followed by "We continue the change" with 12.8 percent and "There are such people" with 11.7. "Democratic Bulgaria" is 5th with 10-11 percent of the vote. The MRF is firmly in the 47th parliament with over 9 percent of the ballots.
The Centre for Analysis and Marketing predicts that 49.5% of voters will vote for Rumen Radev in the presidential election and that a runoff is highly likely.
