Presidential elections will be held in Poland on 18 May 2025. If no candidate secures more than 50% of the vote, a second round will be held on 1 June 2025. [1] Incumbent president Andrzej Duda is ineligible for re-election.

Contents

Electoral system

The president is elected for a five-year term using the two-round system; if no candidate receives a majority of the vote in the first round, a run-off is held between the top two candidates. Presidents serve a five-year term and can be re-elected once. The second term of Andrzej Duda expires on 6 August 2025, and the president-elect will take the oath of office on that day, before the National Assembly (a joint session of Sejm and Senate).

Background

Tusk's cabinet

In December 2023 as a result of the 2023 Polish parliamentary election, Donald Tusk's cabinet, comprising of Civic Coalition, Poland 2050, the Polish People's Party, and the New Left, began governing the country. Tusk's coalition does not have enough votes to bypass the presidential veto, for which it would need 276 votes. [2]

Economic policy

Since Tusk's rise to power, steps have been taken to deregulate the economy, cut welfare spending and balance the budget. In February 2025, Tusk invited billionaire Rafał Brzoska and Google CEO Sundar Pichai [3] to deregulate the Polish economy and cut labor regulations. Tusk's proposal of Brzoska has led to media labelling him as the "Polish Elon Musk". [4] [5] [6] Tusk has been accused of granting Google a monopoly over the Artificial Intelligence sector in Poland via his investment agreements with Pichai. [7]

Social policy

The social policy of Tusk's cabinet has been seeking to expand abortion rights. In July 2024, the Sejm held a vote to decriminalize abortion. However, with a defection of a large section of the Polish People's Party against the government line, the vote failed and the Sejm ruled to keep abortion illegal, with 218 votes against and 215 for decriminalization.

Campaign

First round

Sławomir Mentzen was the first candidate to begin an electoral campaign on 31 August 2024, drawing criticism and accusations of illegality from politicians of other parties for its early start. [37] Marshal of the Sejm Szymon Hołownia from the Poland 2050 party declared his candidacy on 13 November. [38] The Civic Coalition selected its candidate in a presidential primary on 22 November after Minister of Foreign Affairs Radosław Sikorski challenged presumptive nominee, Mayor of Warsaw Rafał Trzaskowski, who was the Civic Coalition's 2020 presidential candidate. [39] Following the Civic Coalition primary, Institute of National Remembrance chairman Karol Nawrocki was endorsed by the Law and Justice party on 24 November as an officially independent candidate, as he never belonged to any political party. [40]

Speculation swiftly began on whether PiS would replace Nawrocki when it was revealed that he had contact with a future criminal as part of his time as a boxer two decades prior, for which he was constantly attacked by opposing politicians. [41] Polling showed, however, that the vast plurality of people did not expect Nawrocki to be replaced. [42]

PiS launched the "Electoral Protection Movement" (Polish : Ruch Ochrony Wyborów), operated primarily by former Minister of Education Przemysław Czarnek, [43] with the intention of safeguarding the democratic conduct of the election and protecting it from electoral fraud, stating that the governing majority is already altering and manipulating electoral law. [44] [45]

During the campaign, both Trzaskowski and Nawrocki campaigned along the right wing of politics; Trzaskowski proposed to limit welfare programs for non-working Ukrainian refugees [46] which was proposed in the Sejm by Law and Justice on 20 January to "check" the genuinity of Trzaskowski's proposal, [47] meanwhile Nawrocki accused the ruling coalition of sexualizing children, demonstratively throwing a copy of Gender Queer: A Memoir into a paper shredder. [48]

On 13 February 2025, Nawrocki was endorsed by Solidarity - Poland's largest trade union - as he, amongst other promises, pledged not to raise the age of retirement (in contrast to Prime Minister Tusk raising it by 2 years for men and 7 years for women during his first tenure [49] ) and defending the minimum wage. [50] At the party conference on 2 March, Nawrocki declared the election a "referendum on rejecting Tusk". [51]

Journalist Krzysztof Stanowski, himself a candidate, held interviews with the other candidates. [52] Several debates were organized: TVP, TVN, and Polsat declared they will jointly hold a debate of all the candidates. [53] TV Republika announced a debate on 14 April, inviting all candidates registered at the time except for Marek Woch, though Trzaskowski and Magdalena Biejat declined the invitation. [54]

On 14 March 2024, the President appointed a new composition of the National Electoral Commission (PKW), selected by the Sejm in December 2023. While Sylwester Marciniak  [ pl ] remained the chairman of the PKW, a position he held since 11 February 2020 and Wojciech Sych  [ pl ] as his deputy, seven other members were recommended by different parties in parliament: KO recommended Konrad Składowski  [ pl ] and Ryszard Balicki  [ pl ], PiS recommended Mirosław Suski  [ pl ] and Arkadiusz Pikulik  [ pl ], PSL recommended Maciej Kliś  [ pl ], PL2050 recommended Paweł Gieras  [ pl ], and Lewica recommended Ryszard Kalisz. [55] [56]

On 29 August, the PKW ruled 5:3 [57] to penalize PiS by refusing to return 10.8 million PLN for 36 million designated to it via party subsidy, alleging the party misused 3.6 million PLN of their provided campaign funds in the 2023 parliamentary election. [58] Despite PiS appealing the decision to the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court issued no verdict within the 60-day deadline. The party appealed to its members and supporters for financial aid in donations. [59] The PKW tied in a vote on 23 September regarding whether the committee recognizes the Supreme Court as valid considering the ongoing constitutional crisis. [60] Further penalizations by the PKW on 18 November occurred thereafter, with the Commission ruling 5:4 to deprive PiS of its entire 75 million PLN subsidy for the three next years. PiS likewise appealed this decision to the Supreme Court, [61] [62] which the Supreme Court ruled invalid on 11 December, obligating the PKW to return PiS its subsidy. [63] The Commission voted 5:4 to adjourn the meeting on 16 December without recognizing the Supreme Court or its ruling. [64] On 30 December, a re-vote was held on the matter of whether it recognizes the Supreme Court, ruling 4:3 in favor of recognizing its verdict on this matter, and accepting the Supreme Court's decision to return the funds to PiS. [65] [66] Subsequently, the matter was relayed to the Ministry of Finance, in charge of granting subsidies.

In reaction to the ruling, several politicians commented. Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated on X that he does not recognize the PKW positively ruling on granting PiS its subsidy. [67] Marshal of the Sejm Szymon Hołownia stated the need for a compromise that lets Poles decide on a President without the validity of the president-elect's mandate being disputed by different parties. [68] On 8 January 2025 Minister of Finance Andrzej Domański refused to recognize the PKW's ruling affirming PiS is to be granted its subsidy, stating the verdict was written in a "self-contradictory" way. [69] Sylwester Marciniak, the PKW chairman, responded by stating the verdict was written clearly and demanding the Ministry grant PiS its allotted funds. [70] Prime Minister Tusk expressed doubt over the legal validity of the PKW verdict, defending his Minister. [71] A poll suggests 47.1% of Poles (98% of PiS voters, 71% of TD voters, 53% of Lewica voters) support PiS receiving the funds, and 46.9% (85% of PO voters, 80% of Konfederacja voters) are against.
