保加利亚总统选举首轮：约托娃以34.6%领先 久罗夫32%紧随 11月1日决选
保加利亚总统选举第一轮投票结束。据保加利亚中央选举委员会在清点95.29%的选区协议后公布的结果，伊利亚娜·约托娃获得506,628票，得票率34.598%，领先其他候选人；安德烈·久罗夫获得469,143票，得票率32.038%，两人将进入11月1日举行的第二轮决选。本次选举共有27名候选人参选。
其余候选人中，科斯塔丁·科斯塔迪诺夫得票12.64%，拉多斯廷·瓦西列夫4.6%，伊韦林·米哈伊洛夫3.7%；选择「不支持任何候选人」的有64,668人，占4.4%。本轮投票率仅约22%，创下新低——按照规则，第一轮直接当选须同时满足得票过半与投票率过半两个条件，本次无人达标。内政部长伊万·德梅尔季耶夫表示，选举在和平中进行，「没有出现惯常的买票和操纵选票现象」。约托娃就低投票率表示：「认为不投票也能改变这个国家，是一种幻想。」
约托娃曾任记者与欧洲议会议员，在拉德夫总统任内担任副总统；拉德夫今年1月辞职转而竞选总理后，约托娃接任总统，此次得到拉德夫的「进步保加利亚」与社会党支持，主张与俄罗斯对话。久罗夫曾任看守政府总理，支持向乌克兰提供武器，并已向约托娃发出公开辩论的挑战。
Bulgaria Presidential Election: Iotova Leads First Round With 34.6%, Runoff Against Gyurov Set for Nov. 1
The first round of Bulgaria's presidential election has concluded. With 95.29% of precinct protocols counted, the Central Election Commission reported that Iliana Iotova received 506,628 votes, or 34.598%, ahead of Andrey Gyurov with 469,143 votes, or 32.038%. The two will advance to a runoff on November 1. A total of 27 candidates contested the election.
Among the remaining candidates, Kostadin Kostadinov took 12.64%, Radostin Vasilev 4.6% and Ivelin Mihaylov 3.7%, while 64,668 voters — 4.4% — chose "I do not support any candidate." Turnout was a record low of about 22%; under Bulgaria's rules a first-round win requires both more than 50% of the vote and turnout above 50%, so no candidate qualified. Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev said the vote took place peacefully, "without the usual practices of vote buying and vote manipulation." On the low turnout, Iotova said: "Thinking that we can change anything in the country without voting is an illusion."
Iotova, a former journalist and member of the European Parliament, served as vice president under President Rumen Radev and became president in January 2026 when Radev resigned to run for prime minister. Backed by Radev's Progressive Bulgaria and the Socialist Party, she favors dialogue with Russia. Gyurov, a former caretaker prime minister who supports arming Ukraine, has challenged Iotova to a public debate.
