The vote outcome will have stark consequences for the future of Polish democracy, European unity and the West’s effort to confront Russian aggression.
Poles began voting Sunday in their most pivotal election since the fall of the Berlin Wall, with stark consequences for the future of Polish democracy, European unity and the West’s effort to confront Russian aggression.The highly charged campaign saw some of the largest rallies on Warsaw’s streets since the restoration of democracy three decades ago.
Kaczynski, currently Poland’s deputy prime minister though long considered the country’s most powerful politician, reviles Tusk. Last week, he encouraged his countrymen to vote for continuity for “peaceful development and a safe future.”. Polls close at 9 p.m. Warsaw time, when generally reliable exit polls are set to be released. Especially if the vote is inclusive, it could take days or longer for a government to emerge and could lead to another vote next year.
