٠٠:٠٢:٣٨Sofia residents expressed criticism over the parliamentary election on Monday, a day after the eastern European country held a fresh parliamentary elections following the inconclusive poll in June.
"This is already a mockery. Every three-four months, elections, elections, elections. They spend public money, the people suffer. Is it so difficult to form a government and help these people. Is it so difficult?," Djafer, a resident of the capital said.
Other residents of the Bulgarian capital echoed this view highlighting that Bulgaria has had seven elections in recent years and expressing concern over the country's image on the international stage.
"These are elections for the seventh time and we will become the laughing stock of the whole world. There will be an eighth, ninth, even tenth election, who knows how? And people are getting desperate little by little," Kostadin stated.
After votes were counted, the conservative GERB party of former Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov came in first, winning around 26.4 percent of votes but failing to secure a majority in Parliament. This leaves the door open for another round of coalition negotiations.
The election marks the country's seventh in four years and comes after parties failed to form a government following a parliamentary election in June.
