„Yesterday and today we have two big things that happened. Yesterday we saw the president naked to the waist and he botched the entire election campaign, and today we see the greatness of the small party “Velichie“, which will most likely enter the parliament“.
This is what political analyst and former Minister of Energy Miroslav Sevlievski commented on the occasion of the first results of the sociological agencies “Alfa Research” and “Market LINKS“, with which bTV works.
The parallel count of the "Gallup" shows that the political formation enters the parliament with 12 mandates.
„The interesting thing in the party is one woman - Viktoria Vasileva, who a few years ago was part of Slavi Trifonov's party, and now she is also the leader of one of the party's Sofia lists. It turns out that wherever she goes, she goes with 50-60 thousand votes. It will turn out to be the biggest electoral surprise in the Bulgarian electoral history in recent years”, comments Sevlievski.
Viktoria Vasileva is a former deputy and organizational secretary of "There is such a people". She left Slavi Trifonov's party after the quadruple government with Prime Minister Kiril Petkov collapsed in 2022 and in a coalition they ruled "We continue the change" (PP), "There is such a people", BSP and "Democratic Bulgaria".
„It all looks pretty shambolic, but that doesn't make their result any less important. I think that these are radical people, because I think that they also take votes from the “Revival” and from the BSP, who are disappointed by the not-so-great radicals. They are desperate and that's why they vote in spite of themselves, said the journalist and editor-in-chief of Capital. Yovo Nikolov.
According to him, abroad, our citizens are often more radical.
