An exit poll suggested the governing Law and Justice party won the most votes on Sunday but lost support compared to the last election.
Poland’s election result was on a knife edge as an exit poll suggested the governing Law and Justice party won the most votes on Sunday but lost support compared to the last election.
Three opposition parties, Civic Coalition, Third Way and the New Left, ran on separate tickets but with the same promises of seeking to oust Law and Justice and restore good ties with the European Union. Law and Justice has been polling in recent weeks at over 30%, making it the single most popular party but still at risk of losing its majority in parliament.
Tomasz Druzynski, an information technology specialist, voted in Warsaw saying he believed change was possible. The EU, whose funding has driven much of the economic transformation, is also withholding billions of euros in funding to Poland over what it views as democratic erosion.
