Parliamentary elections were held in Bulgaria on 12 May 2013, two months ahead of schedule.[1] Protests had forced the resignation of the GERB government in February, leading to the election being moved up.[2]
The elections resulted in a minority parliament, with no party winning a majority of seats. Furthermore, voter turnout was at its lowest since the end of the Communist era.[3] GERB's leader, Boyko Borisov, called for the election results to be annulled, claiming that there had been "illegal campaigning" on the day before the election.[4]
