For the first time a female president in Bulgaria? According to exit polls, Iliana Yotova wins the elections

Iliana Yotova has reportedly won the Bulgarian presidential elections according to exit polls, potentially becoming the first female president. She is viewed as pro-Russian and advocates for negotiations with Moscow regarding the Ukraine conflict. Yotova, who has been acting president since January, is projected to receive around 52% of the votes, while her opponent Andrey Gyurov is at approximately 45%. The elections faced a historically low turnout, necessitating a second round. Official results are expected tomorrow morning, amidst ongoing political instability in Bulgaria.
