What was published before the vote
NOVA’s headline reports a forecast of six parties in the next parliament. Stefanova places GERB first and suggests There Is Such a People could enter at the last moment. The article was published on 20 August, before the 2 October 2022 vote.
What the results show
The Commission’s table awards seats to seven electoral lists. GERB-SDS finishes first; There Is Such a People receives 3.83% and no seats. The first-place forecast matches the result, while the predicted number of parliamentary groups does not.
How far the comparison goes
