Bulgaria's opposition GERB party narrowly won the first elections for the European Parliament yesterday with 21.69 per cent of the vote, preliminary results found today.
The ruling Socialist party received 21.41 per cent, and junior coalition partner MRF won 20.26 per cent with all the votes counted.
Each of the three parties could receive five of Bulgaria's 18 seats in the European Parliament.
The commission is expected to announce the seat distribution tomorrow or Wednesday.
