Head of state
Surveys: Poland before electoral thriller around the presidential office
Who will be the successor of state head Andrzej Duda? The race between the liberal Trzaskowski and the right -wing conservative Nawrocki becomes very scarce according to surveys.
According to surveys, a very scarce race indicates before the runoff election around the Presidential Office in Poland. After a survey on behalf of the “Onet” portal, the Liberal Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski leads with 50.1 percent of the vote with a wafer -thin lead. The right -wing conservative Karol Nawrocki comes to 49.9 percent. Another result was a survey on behalf of the “Wirtualna Polska” portal. Accordingly, Nawrocki is just ahead with 50.63 percent, Trzaskowski lands with 49.37 percent behind it.
This is an exciting election night on Sunday, in which the winner could remain unclear for a long time. The polling stations close at 9 p.m. After that, there are only forecasts. However, their fault tolerance is greater than the small distance between the two candidates, which is emerging in the surveys. Calculations like in Germany are not common in Poland. The official result is only expected on Monday.
Important choice for Prime Minister Tusk
Poland is a politically deeply divided country, and the result of this presidential election will significantly determine the course of the EU and NATO member- with effects for Germany and Europe. Trzaskowski belongs to the camp of Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The outcome of the presidential election is also crucial for whether it can advance its reform projects.
The almost 29 million eligible voters in Poland are called to determine a successor to the Vorzej Duda, who had an outstanding office. In Poland, the President serves five years. The head of state has more powers than the Federal President in Germany. It not only represents the country to the outside world. The President also has an impact on foreign policy, he appoints the head of government and the cabinet and is the commanding of the armed forces in the event of war.
