Right-wing party expects win in Bulgarian election
Voters angry over persistent corruption and a worsening economy are expected to oust Bulgaria's Socialist-led coalition and elevate the center-right party of Sofia's popular mayor to power in Sunday's parliamentary election. A change of power would continue a 19-year trend in Bulgaria in which no government has been re-elected, mainly because of tough reforms all have had to implement since the fall of Communism.
Borisov's center right party has been riding high on promises to jail corrupt officials and crime bosses. At his final rally Friday, Stanishev called on Bulgarians to give him a second chance to implement reforms, saying his Socialist-led coalition had maintained financial stability and ensured higher incomes.
