Polish Presidential Rivals Hold Rallies Before Vote
Tens of thousands gathered in the heart of Warsaw this past Sunday to rally behind candidates in what is shaping up to be a critical presidential election for Poland. The upcoming vote is viewed as a pivotal moment in the nation’s ongoing efforts towards democratic reform, with an intensifying focus on the judiciary and civil liberties.
At the forefront of the movement is Prime Minister Donald Tusk, rallying support for his candidate, the liberal mayor of Warsaw, Rafal Trzaskowski. Trzaskowski aims to succeed the outgoing president, Andrzej Duda, a member of the nationalist Law and Justice Party (PiS), whose presidency has been marked by controversial vetoes against key judicial reforms.
“Full determination is needed. Every vote is needed so that the future wins,” declared Trzaskowski to a sea of supporters, adorned in red and white Polish flags alongside blue and gold European Union flags. His message resonated deeply with attendees, many of whom see this election as a moment of reckoning for Poland’s democratic values.
The rally also attracted international attention, including a notable appearance by Romania’s newly-elected President Nicusor Dan. He expressed solidarity with Tusk and Trzaskowski, emphasizing the importance of a united front to bolster both Poland and the European Union, especially in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions related to Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Trzaskowski’s campaign faces off against Karol Nawrocki, the candidate endorsed by the conservative-nationalist PiS party. In the first round of voting, Trzaskowski narrowly edged out Nawrocki with 31.4% of the vote compared to 29.5%, indicating a more competitive race than initially anticipated by opinion polls.
As both candidates gear up for the presidential runoff, the contest remains tight, with public sentiment hanging on every rally and campaign message. The outcome will not only affect Poland’s domestic policies but also its standing within the European community, as many observers keenly await the election results that could alter the course of the nation’s path toward reform and integration.

Vote wisely Poland….look at the UK, you DONT want to end up like us… Open Poland will have a huge impacts.
Polish mainstream media are spreading propagandy..
All 3 main television TVN-POLSAT-TVP are pro-Trzaskowsik who's is on SOROS payroll…
Poles are not stupid..
We are witnessing similar scenarios like with TRUMP.
Oby nie trzaskowski
Keep your right wing government. Don’t let the liberals ruin your country.
To Europe is the way !!!
Poland… the UK envies your safety and intact identity.
Don't make the mistake of becoming an endangered, hunted…eventual minority in your own country.
Why would you possibly want what so many of your neighbours are infected with?
Trzaskowski najlepszy 👍👍👍👍
Don't listen to that idiot claiming himself the "Romanian president"…he "won" in Romania by fraud
Have a good look at Liberal dictators.
That’s correct Poland as a Pole living 20 years in the UK please do not make the mistake to vote for the liberal, and no, the EU is not good for anyone! They promise you freedom to control you with the wicked legislations which are much more dangerous than your private needs! If you keep your life private it will stay private and we are tolerant as long as it is not implemented on the majority and children! Choose wisely and if you don’t, please do not cry later! The Western Europe is not really an example to follow❣️ I pray and I’ll vote too to keep Poland safe and sovereign! God bless 🙏🏼🙌🏼 🇵🇱 Love from London ❤️
Whoever has the same views as Dominik tsarczinsky should represent Poland
Please support your own country’s independence. Europe is not good for anyone – look at uk. We are now so much worse off – badly worse off never will recover – it will take many decades IF there is any chance of recovery. If you don’t look after yourself no one else will do it. Certainly not eu
Meanwhile in the uk..
I have a feeling these comments are Russia or Israel bots. Both have too much influence and bots interfering in our countries. Then again, they could be US MAGA, who are pretty much the pawns and main target of the bot campaigns by Russia and Israel. Every president and prime minister of Israel since the creation of that state about 70 years ago comes from former USSR, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, etc. Conflict involving Ukraine and Israel now. Coincidence? I think not. Hungary and Poland being the thorn in EU side, veto, etc. Coincidence? I think not. AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) controls US politics. Labour Friends of Israel, Conservative Friends of Israel, two sides of the same shekel, UK politics (immigration by design). Control European and American or "western" media. What shekels? Ask the media that parrots Israel government verbatim, unquestioning lotalty to Israel, but attacks our own political parties relentlessly every day. I'm sure it's all just a coincidence though. I'm quite sure you don't know anything about the UK, but parrot what your Israel media and bots tell you.
This guy is the worst that can happen to Poland
Well, that's nice. Trzaskowski is supported by the elect from Romania who won the rigged elections 😅😅😅

Poland protect your democracy, protect you rights, don't give into missinformation and shady agents. Romania is standing with you no matter the outcome. Good luck and vote for a world where your children can be free, not lied and bought by opportunists.
Sad how eager many of them are to flush their own country down the toilet voting for that puppet
