Bulgarian president Radev votes in Sofia

Bulgarian President Rumen Radev cast his ballot in the country's fifth general election in two years, as politicians hoped to end political instability. Polling stations opened at 7 a.m.

Initial exit poll results will be announced after polls close at 8 p.m. and preliminary results are expected on Monday. Turnout is expected to be low due to voters’ apathy and disillusionment with politicians, who have been repeatedly unable to cobble together a viable government coalition.
