A late exit poll on Monday indicated that Poland’s ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party was leading in the country’s election, though it would not win a majority.
PiS received 36.6% of the votes in the IPSOS late survey, which was released by Polsat News. The liberal Civic Coalition (KO) came in second with 31%, followed by the center-right Third Way with 13.5%, the far-right Confederation with 6.4%, and the New Left with 8.6%.
Poland’s Election
An Ipsos exit poll indicated that Poland’s ruling nationalists led the parliamentary elections, although they did not have a majority. With 200 MPs in the 460-seat parliament, the Law and Justice (PiS) party received 36.8% of the vote.
With 163 seats predicted for the liberal Civic Coalition (KO), the main opposition party, it was predicted to receive 31.6% of the vote.
It would control 248 seats in tandem with the New Left and the center-right Third Way coalition. On Sunday afternoon, the official results will be made public.
Donald Tusk, the leader of the KO, has promised to mend the tense relations between Brussels and the United States over issues including judicial independence, LGBT rights, and migration.
Opponents contend that PiS has expanded political sway over judiciaries and converted official media into propaganda tools. PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski stated that he was unsure if the results of Sunday’s poll would result in a new term in government.
