If the elections were today, six formations would pass the 4% barrier, according to a nationally representative poll by Exacta Research Group. Those are GERB-SDS with 24.4%, We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) - 20.1%, Vazrazhdane - 14.8%, The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) - 13.2%, BSP for Bulgaria - 9.5%, and There is Such a People - 4.8%.

A total of 61% of adult Bulgarians approve the election of a government by Parliament, the results of the poll show. The respondents who disapprove of the rotation in the government between GERB and PP-DB are 65%, and 35% are happy with it. The two rotating Prime Ministers - Premier Nikolay Denkov /PP-DB/ and Deputy Prime Minister Mariya Gabriel /GERB-SDS/, at the beginning of their work enjoy an approval of some 27% each.

The survey was conducted from 12 to 20 June among 1,040 Bulgarians in 71 settlements with Exacta's own funds.
