What are the differences in the collection of signatures by Artur Bartoszewicz (he has about 1.7 1000 followers on X) and Krzysztof Stanowski (he has 1.2 million followers)?

Known facts about Stanowski:

• ➡️ Stanowski actively uses his YouTube channel (channel Zero) to advance his candidacy and encourage the collection of signatures. There are regular videos on the channel that tell you how to support it. The channel has 1.5 million subscribers.
• ➡️ Website – Stanowski provides detailed information on how to collect signatures, where you can collect lists of support and how to fill them in.
• ➡️ Signature problems – Despite a wide online campaign, Stanowski publically admits that he has difficulty collecting the required number of signatures. In its materials, it frequently calls on observers to become more involved.

Known facts about Bartoszewicz:

• ➡️ Bartoszewicz announced that he had collected 160 1000 signatures, which exceeds the required minimum. This is simply a fact confirmed by himself and his election staff. On March 17, 2025, his candidacy was registered by PKW.
• ➡️ No visible online campaign. Unlike Stanowski Bartoszewicz does not lead a visible run on social media or on YouTube. His online activities are limited or do not be at all. His social media profiles have marginal ratings.
• Traditional methods. Bartoszewicz most likely relied on conventional methods of collecting signatures, specified as rewriting signatures from PESEL databases or from any unknown organizations or local structures.

So who helped Bartoszewicz?

The conservative, right-wing, national or Catholic environments that share his views have no interest in supporting Bartoszewicz, due to the fact that this would weaken the candidacy of Sławomir Mentzen, who is the only 1 with a chance to defeat Trzaskovsky in the second round. Then who would have business supporting Bartoszewicz's campaign? Here are any options:

Environments related to left or centre.

➡️ Why?

If Bartoszewicz takes the votes from conservative and right-wing electorates, this indirectly strengthens left-wing or center candidates. Distributing votes to the right would make it easier for a candidate from the Civic Platform to enter the second round.

➡️ Who is it?

• Civic Platform. She may have had an interest in weakening her right to increase her candidate's chances.
• Left. Like the PO, she may have wanted to break the right-wing electorate.
• NGOs related to the centre or left. They could support Bartoszewicz to weaken competition from the right.

Environments related to large business or interest groups.

➡️ Why?

Some business groups may have an interest in weakening circumstantial candidates (e.g. Mentzen, who is associated with a free market, libertarian economical vision). If Bartoszewicz takes the votes from Mentzen, it may weaken his position, which may be beneficial for groups that do not want extremist economical change.

➡️ Who is it?

• Big corporations. They could support Bartoszewicz to weaken Mentzen, who is seen as a threat to their interests.
• Energy, pharmaceutical and agricultural lobbyists. They may have had an interest in promoting a candidate who would not push for extremist reforms.

The environment related to PiS.

➡️ Why?

If Bartoszewicz takes the votes from Mentzen (the PiS competitor on the right), this indirectly strengthens the position of the PiS candidate, or Nawrocki. The PiS could so have an interest in having Bartoszewicz take the votes from Mentzen, but not Nawrock.

➡️ Who is it?

• Local PiS activists – They could informally support Bartoszewicz to weaken the Confederacy.
• PiS-related organisations – e.g. foundations or associations that work to advance a political imagination akin to the PiS.

Does Stanowski hurt Mentzen as much as Bartoszewicz? No! No! Mentzen supports Stanowski and openly helps him collect signatures, as it is known that Stanowski will resign at the last possible minute and his supporters will vote for Mentzen. Only a vote on Mantzen can make Trzaskowski not President.
