Democrats win, but democratic values lose

We know the results of the Euro-election exit poll. According to him, the Civic Coalition won 38.3% of votes, Law and Justice 33.9%, Confederation 11.9 percent, 3rd Road 8.2 percent, and Left wing 6.6 percent (data for exit poll IPSOS for TVN24).

After 10 years, Donald Tusk's organization returns to first place on the podium. Tusk started his speech after announcing exit polli. "I am so happy," he said. 1 cannot aid but announcement that this is simply a strong political symbol. The election of October 15, 2023 brought a change of power, but the first place was then taken by the Law and Justice, likewise in the local elections.

But the most crucial question is what this means for all of us. At political criticism's electoral evening, Sadura noted that the return of democratic parties to power did not bring democratic values back. The situation on the Polish-Belarusian border does not change, pushbacks do not disappear, right to abortion as it was not, so there is not.

Campaign to the Euro-Elections we had Green Deal criticism or the migration pact carried out not only by Kaczyński, but by Tuska and Hołownia showed that Polish politics are moving towards Euroscepticism. Jakub Majmurek described it well:

Similar conclusions were besides brought by the study by the Przemek Sadura showing that Poles love the Union, but increasingly conditionally. The very good result of the Confederacy, which is on the electoral podium, is simply a clear signal that the European Union can be judged against reverence and religion by building stronger and stronger support.

Apparently, where 2 fight, there's a third. In the case of political polarization, which has been taking place in our country since I can remember, this rule does not work. The 3rd Way is losing. On October 15, she gained from the alleged tactical vote – you don't like Tusk, ok, but if you don't like Kaczyński, halt him by voting for TD. It worked. Once. Simon Holovnia with specified results of his organization must come up with any fresh beginning if he inactive dreams of a presidential seat.

The left, unfortunately, has consistently lost. Either he pulls and proposes a fresh communicative about himself, he will show fresh leaders or leaders – but those seriously who will take the helm, and they will not be exposed to leadership positions just so that no 1 picks anymore, that there are 3 tenors at the head of the Left – or he will be completely marginalized.

Exit poll says attendance was 39.7%. little than in 2019 but more than in earlier elections to the Europarliament. There's no surprise. We are tired of the election tributary, in which the same faces and the same slogans are always repeated.

Maybe now that there is simply a breath from the elections, politicians will be able to take off populists' masks and the KO will yet begin to realise democratic values, the government will be in charge of governance and the parliament will be working on laws. If the populist mask hasn't grown on Donald Tusk's face yet, there's a chance. If she grew up due to the fact that it paid off scaring migrants or paying developers for loans taken by people who have no place to live, it'll only get worse.
