Five political formations are certain to participate in the next National Assembly. However, the winner remains unclear. Three parties remain below the parliamentary barrier, but with support above 3%. This is shown by the data from a study by "Trend" commissioned by the newspaper "24 Chasa" about the electoral attitudes of Bulgarians. The study was conducted in the period between March 6 and 12, 2023.

In the first week of the election campaign, the "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" coalition - with 26.5%, has a lead of 0.9% over its main opponent GERB-SDS - with 25.6%. DPS held the third position with 13.6% of the voters, followed by "Vazrazhdane" with 12.9% of the voters. The Bulgarian Socialist party (BSP) lost some of its support, remaining with 7.5%. The reason is the entry of a new player in the left political coalition "Levitsata". They have 3.5% of the voters. 3.6% say that they will vote in the upcoming elections for "Bulgarian Rise", and 3.1% for "There Is Such a People". 5.1% indicate "I do not support anyone".

47% of all interviewees say they will exercise their right to vote on April 2. Estimated voter turnout according to survey data will be between 2,500,000 and 2,700,000.
