Bulgaria’s incumbent president wins runoff election, exit polls suggest

Exit polls in Bulgaria have projected incumbent President Iliana Iotova to win Sunday’s presidential runoff against former caretaker Prime Minister Andrey Gurov. Alpha Research estimated that Iotova would receive 52.5% of the vote, compared with 43.4% for Gurov, while another poll showed a similar result. Official results are expected by Wednesday. Under Bulgaria’s constitution, the candidate who receives the most votes wins the five-year presidential term. Iotova became president in January after her predecessor, Rumen Radev, resigned.
