The first round of the presidential election will likely not decide the outcome, but there may be big surprises. However, the result of the first round could be crucial for mobilization in the second round. What are we really choosing?
We have many colorful candidates and a few serious ones, all united by their desire to win your votes in a democratic race. But there is also one candidate whose success could mean the destruction of Poland’s democratic achievements. That candidate is Rafał Trzaskowski.
Personally, socially, and politically, he is a product of communist elites who have always despised ordinary people. He holds no opinion that he wouldn’t quickly change.
Today, Trzaskowski’s most serious opponent is Karol Nawrocki. That is why, using secret services, an unprecedented attack was launched against Nawrocki to discredit him. This was meant to overshadow his successes in the U.S. and the fact that his main opponent embarrasses himself in almost every public appearance. The scale of abuses in this campaign is staggering: from illegal foreign funding, to the use of secret services, to staged setups in public media.
We must defend democracy, freedom of speech, and basic human rights. Let’s go vote and encourage our friends and acquaintances to do the same.
