The article presents the contemporary debate about political and suffrage transformation in Bulgaria. Bulgarian political and electoral system evolved between 1990–2009. It is worth noting that it is still characterized by minimal political and party stabil-ity. The swing of the electoral preferences is large, which results in changes in the run-ning of the cabinet. It means that the political system is unconsolidated. By contrast, the Bulgarian electoral system is multimandate and underwent a number of reforms. A great deal of attention in legislation is given to the financial support for election campaigns and to complement it with the d’ Hondt method.
