The latest survey shows rising support for the Civic Coalition, a decline for Law and Justice, and puts the Polish People’s Party at the bottom of the standings.
Latest poll results
The Institute of Pollster Research, commissioned by Super Express, found that the Civic Coalition outpolls Law and Justice. Compared to the previous month, Donald Tusk’s coalition gained 0.87 percentage points, reaching 32.04% support. Jarosław Kaczyński’s faction fell 2.67 points to 30.88%. Confederation sits last with 12.84%. New Left follows at 6.98 % and Poland 2050 at 5.18 %. Just below the electoral threshold, Confederation of the Polish Crown of Grzegorz Braun tops the list at 4.91 %, followed by the Together Party at 4.67 %. The Polish People’s Party trails with only 2.4 %.
PSL faces risk of losing parliamentary representation
Polish People’s Party must display activity and decisiveness, otherwise its members risk being excluded from the Sejm. Support for the Civic Coalition is only slightly higher than for Law and Justice, making the continuation of the current government uncertain, said Dr. Bartłomiej Machnik, a political scientist at UKSW. The survey was conducted on August 8‑9 with 1,006 adult Poles.
Tensions in the ruling coalition
Marta Rawicz reports that concerns about the ruling camp’s future echo within the Civic Coalition, though early elections are not yet contemplated. “I rely more on the common sense of Hołowni, hoping someone will finally realize he’s harming both the coalition and his own party,” a member of Tusk’s formation said. “But if the polls stay poor, a large number of MPs might leave the club and form their own parliamentary group,” another Civic Coalition participant noted.
