I was in Poland a few weeks ago - didn’t see one moose limb the who time I was there.
Poland is at 97% counted and Nawroski (nationalist party) up 2.3%
So "The Fix" wasn't quite as good as the Socialist Lefties thought?
Will the euros just cancel the election like in Romania?
Just give it to the guy with the fewest vowels.
When will the missing truck be found soon?
What are the Polish words for ‘last-minute ballot stuffing’ and ‘nullification’? Someone better know!
They eat a lot of game there, but it’s mostly boar.
>> It would also significantly complicate the work of Tusk’s government.
Feel-good story of the day!
Yes they do - had the duck perogies
I’m seeing reported vote 99.81% in with Nawrocki up 1.88% points. If that report is accurate it’s over.
Now with 100% of vote in, including 100% of the overseas voting in, Nawrocki still leads by 1.78% points according to polandelects.com (10,606,628 to 10,237,177 votes.) Margin had kept tightening since he was up nearly 10% with 68% in, but the late surge for the EU candidate wasn’t enough to win that count. So now we learn whether they have something more nefarious up their sleeve (370K votes out of 21M cast would be quite a pick up for a recount) or whether Nawrocki will be allowed his win.
Updated exit poll shows right-wing candidate Nawrocki winning Polish presidential election (Jun 2, 2025)
It is looking better. Exit Polls are not the victory.
Final poll results are.
Thanks for that post.

Poland Presidential Election (100% Reporting)
🔵 Nawrocki (Right Wing) 50.9% ✅
🟠 Trzaskowski (Pro EU) 49.1%
Good. Thank you for update.
Trzaskowski already ‘claimed victory’.
What does that tell you?
New conservative president can't do much positively, but can veto things. Parliament, held by his party until '23, but now held by the presidential loser's party, has the power to do things, but needs 60% to override his veto. They don't have that large a majority. So anticipate lots of vetos, some compromise, but not much done on the big picture items. And perhaps early parliamentary elections (default scheduled for '27) trying to break the logjam.
