In an interview with 24Chasa, Kiselova justified her entrance into electoral politics by noting that she believed she could accomplish more within parliament, then as an outside expert and praised the BSP for their role as a "systemic" party that defended the values of parliamentary democracy.

Speaking after her nomination, Kiselova underlined that the BSP had always been a supporter of parliamentarism and urged all the parliamentary parties to unite around a common ideal of defending the constitutional order of Bulgaria.

[18] In response, Kiselova stated that she had not personally searched for support for her candidacy from DPS-Peevski, and promised to resign as Speaker if her election was secured with their votes.

[19] On the 6th of December, Kiselova was elected the speaker of the National Assembly, with 140 votes from GERB-SDS, PP-DB, BSP-UL and APS.

Commenting the rumours about her undertaking the role, Kiselova confirmed that she did not exclude the possibility in the case of failed government negotiations.

[22] In an interview on the 24th of December, 2024, Kiselova confirmed that the two main priorities for the parliament in the first months of the New Year would be the passage of legislation concerning the budget and the Supreme Judicial Council.
