Poland’s presidential election is heating up as two candidates, Rafał Trzaskowski and Karol Nawrocki, are neck-and-neck ahead of June 1 polls. In Sunday’s first round, Trzaskowski secured 31.4% of the vote, narrowly beating Law and Justice party-backed Nawrocki with 29.5%. The outcome has significant implications for Poland’s effort to reestablish a system governed by the rule of law. A successful election could mark a turning point in the country’s efforts to revive democratic institutions, while a loss may jeopardize these reforms.
