Łukasz Gibała won the second round of the presidential elections in Krakow, receiving over 60% of the votes, which the head of his rival Monika Piątkowska called a difficult campaign, while also assuring that the implementation of his promise "Krakow for the residents" will be monitored. #Kraków #wybory #Gibała (translated)
Chrzanik quoted the statement of Stanowski and Mazurek, who accused the prime minister of using a woman's body as a political prop, and sharply condemned such actions. He added that in the 2027 campaign, Donald Tusk will not hold back and has no brakes. #polityka #kampania2027 #Nawrocki (translated)
Monika Jadwiga Piątkowska thanked the residents, the staff, and the volunteers for their support during the campaign, as well as Civic Coalition and the New PSL. She wrote that at the beginning, the polls placed her in fourth place, but later, together with the voters, she entered the second round with a result significantly higher than expected. She also mentioned that she experienced hate. Piątkowska assessed that the number of people supporting her grew alongside the campaign. She informed that a platform of agreement called "Above Divisions" was established, which she described as a phenomenon on a national scale. She expressed hope that residents would turn out in large numbers to vote on October 11 and support the evolutionary change in Krakow. #Kampania #Wybory #Polska (translated)

Bernadette Greene-Placentia, the Democratic candidate for Congress in Arizona, reveals that she was raped during the campaign when she was trying to fix her campaign poster, and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office has confirmed that it is conducting an investigation into the matter. #BernadetteGreenePlacentia #zgwałcenie #kampaniawyborcza (translated)
Patryk Spaliński regretted that the post had been removed. He wrote that he would like to see a similar proposal in the campaign for the Sejm in 2027 and estimated that Razem would then have a solid 8% of the votes. https://t.co/hJ2d1a0yeK #sejm #Razem #kampania (translated)
Paweł Usiądek wrote that the "Bridges of Ukraine" project was supposed to prepare at least 20 Ukrainian activists in Poland for appearances in Polish media. According to him, the initiative was led by the Ukrainian organization Hołka together with the Warsaw Foundation of the Alliance of Ukrainian Youth "August 24". The program was to include training on the Polish socio-political context, mentoring, and advocacy campaigns, as well as the development of joint messages regarding security, European integration, history, and countering disinformation. Usiądek claimed that the project received support from the International "Renaissance" Fund, which is part of the Open Society Foundations network founded by George Soros. He cited the results of the "Bridges of Solidarity with Ukraine" contest from June 2026, in which — as he wrote — support for the Hołka project was supposed to be described as an action in favor of Ukrainian communities in Poland. He added that an earlier phase of the project operated as an information platform, and funding emerged during the construction of a network of advocates. The author noted that the Foundation of the Alliance of Ukrainian Youth has been operating in Warsaw since September 2025, and its president was Artur Koldomasov. He also pointed out that among the foundation's goals, promoting the interests of Ukrainian youth and increasing the role of Ukrainians in European activism was recorded, and the organization conducted a "Hatred Observatory," monitoring Polish-language statements deemed hostile towards Ukrainians. Usiądek assessed that the project was supposed to serve to promote a common message in Polish media and linked it to the appeal of former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, who — according to the author — called on Ukrainians abroad to engage in politics and hold influential positions. Finally, he called for a ban on foreign funding for politicized non-governmental organizations in Poland. #Ukraina #Media #Propaganda (translated)
Magda assessed that the actions of Bielan and his team from the Palace were merely a preview of what might happen during the campaign, and that even the best campaign might not be enough. She wrote that she would not count on the midterms because — as she noted — this environment will not disappear even if Trump loses, and his anger could make it even more unpredictable. She added that she does not expect fair play and warned against ignoring further such actions, as later there might be regret that consequences were not drawn in time. #Polityka #Kampania #Wybory (translated)
Lemingopedia mentioned that in 2008, when he was 19 years old, youth unemployment in Poland was nearly 20 percent, and the minimum wage was around 850–900 zlotys net. He described going abroad as a result of a lack of prospects and noted that many emigrants did not return to the country. He argued that Eldo's song "Nie pytaj o nią" gave young people hope for a change in Poland's fate. The author stated that his generation worked hard to make the country a source of pride and achieved success at a high cost and out of love for their homeland. He also recalled the year 2023 when Wini interviewed Rafał Trzaskowski in his car during the election campaign. Lemingopedia assessed the conversation as artificial and stated that Poles did not support Trzaskowski. Referring to Wini's statements from 2026, the author wrote that he criticized rappers for legitimizing politicians instead of criticizing them, and he considered Eldo's performance at President Karol Nawrocki's event and photos of other rappers with the president as unsuccessful. Lemingopedia accused Wini of previously promoting Trzaskowski during the campaign. He also quoted Eldo's explanation that he interpreted the invitation as a call from the Republic, not from Karol Nawrocki. Lemingopedia expressed respect for Eldo, writing that the artist had not changed his understanding of the Republic. He called on parents to speak to their children about Poland as a country that can be strong, wise, and beautiful, and to encourage them to work and build its future with pride. He criticized what he referred to as the expulsion of names from textbooks in the name of "modernity" and "pedagogy of shame" as well as grants from the Batory Foundation. https://t.co/8NPL5yAO8g #Polska #Rzeczypospolita #Młodzież (translated)
The author of the post called someone the campaign spokesperson, the chief spin-doctor, and the chief marketing advisor. He pointed to the increasing connections between the PR firm organizing the campaign for Monika Piątkowska, the KO candidate for mayor of Kraków who comes from Warsaw, and the lobbying firm servicing the tobacco industry. https://t.co/CABgCZK7nS #Kampania #Polityka #PR #PL (translated)
Professor Penguin called the campaign "beautiful" and wrote that Tusk and Trzaskowski had played people with decidedly right-wing views for three months. #Polska #Tusk #Trzaskowski (translated)
The author of the entry believed that the upcoming campaign will differ from that of 2023. He wrote that the rulers can no longer make so many promises because the voters will not believe them, and instead of promises, they will appeal to security issues. https://t.co/oQRu49nwlG #kampania #bezpieczeństwo #zmiany (translated)
Tommy Shelby returned after four days of absence and summarized the events that, as he wrote, took place during that time. He stated that Nawrocki signed the fuel law and demanded a gas price of 5.19 zł, while the government set a limit of 6.73 zł. He also mentioned the horses Edzio, Ramzes, and Aramis at the presidential center. According to Shelby, Prime Minister Tusk posted a photo with a humorous caption about riding for his own money, and Radek Sikorski also got on a horse. In Kraków, he wrote, Gibała and Piątkowska were preparing for the second round. Piątkowska informed that unknown individuals were watching her son's house and tried to take pictures of him. Shelby also noted that Mentzen mocked the new female police officers, and a former officer invited him for a joint fitness test. In the further part of the summary, he stated that Lewandowski scored three goals against Romania, Poland won 6-0, and the captain received a card that excluded him from the match against Bosnia. He also wrote that the second pilot of Flydubai attacked the captain with an emergency axe, passengers helped regain control, and the plane landed safely. Finally, he wished the recipients a blessed Sunday. #Polska #polityka #inflacja (translated)
Monika Jadwiga Piątkowska wrote that unknown individuals appeared outside her son's place of residence, observed him, and tried to take pictures of him. She emphasized that her son is not a public figure nor a participant in any campaign, and these actions violated her family's privacy. She announced that she would take legal action against the direct perpetrators, as well as those who might inspire, fund, or coordinate such actions. She added that she cannot be intimidated and does not intend to back down. #Prywatność #KampaniaWyborcza #OchronaDzieci (translated)
Max Hübner wrote that the crowd in Stargard reacted upon hearing that Zbigniew Bogucki, head of the President's Chancellery, came with President Karol Nawrocki. He assessed that Nawrocki's selection in 2025 turned out to be very accurate and was promising ahead of the 2027 election campaign. https://t.co/lhgY5w4sfy #Stargard #wybory2027 #polityka (translated)
Monika Jadwiga Piątkowska announced that she won a case in the electoral procedure against Łukasz Gibala in the first instance. As she wrote, the District Court in Krakow agreed with her position regarding Gibala's comments about the councilors of the Civic Coalition. According to Piątkowska, the court ordered him to publish a correction on RMF FM and social media. She noted that the decision was not final. Piątkowska assessed that moving the campaign to court indicated a lack of ideas from her opponent's campaign team for substantive competition. She accused Gibala of avoiding debates with the media and residents and predicted that by the end of the campaign he would attempt to win the presidency of Krakow in court. She announced that in the coming days she wants to talk to residents about the city's finances, transport, housing, safety, and investments. She advocated for a campaign based on facts and expressed hope that the court's decision would help Krakow emerge from the period of disputes and "dirty campaigning." #Kraków #wybory #polityka (translated)
Mr. Nawrocki, Unfortunately, I listened to this hmmm "message" and checked it against the documents. And, as usual, I have a problem. A big one. Because when you set aside the gestures, the teleprompter, and the political phrases, what remains is a series of facts mixed with half-truths, altered chronology, forecasts presented as certainties, and accusations that are not even confirmed by the documents of your own Office and a mass of other manipulations. Step by step. "The campaign promise of fuel at 5.19." No. Mr. Donald Tusk’s specific statement about 5.19 PLN was made in JUNE 2022. Parliamentary elections were scheduled for August 8, 2023. Only then did the election campaign begin in the sense of the Electoral Code. But it gets much more interesting with your quote... In the message, you connected 5.19 PLN, "one simple decision," and... a VAT reduction 🤦♂️ However, in the original statement about 5.19, Tusk talked about the MARGINS of Orlen and Lotos. And in a later statement about "one decision," he also talked about limiting Orlen's profits. Not about VAT! 🤦♂️ You are manipulating the Prime Minister's statement, and you are using the institution of the Address to the Nation for that... Exactly the same version about VAT was spread by Mr. Bogucki in the morning, but in his case, nothing surprises me anymore. A coincidence? Let’s move on. You claim that your project would cause "an immediate drop in fuel prices of over 2 PLN." Meanwhile, your OWN justification explicitly states that the mechanism DOES NOT START when the law comes into force. First, specific market conditions must occur. Then the Council of Ministers MAY issue a regulation. Only then does the mechanism begin to work. Where is the "immediate" here? Did you read your "own" project? Or are you just repeating this nonsense from Mr. Przydacz? Moreover, earlier materials from KPRP talked about an ESTIMATE of 1.70–2.60 PLN 🤦♂️ In the address, the estimate has already turned into a guaranteed effect 🤦♂️ Next, you say that the project is "good for the budget"... Meanwhile, your own justification predicts a loss of up to 600 million PLN just from the retail sales tax and further, unestimated costs of any potential excise tax reduction. I ask again - did you read your own project? Because you probably didn’t write it manually... Even more interesting. In the address: "The government bears full responsibility for fuel prices." In the justification of your project: market disruptions have an "objective character and are independent of entrepreneurs and the government".... So please decide. Full responsibility of the government or factors independent of the government? Because both versions cannot be true at the same time 🤦♂️ "The Marshal of the Sejm freezes the project." The project was submitted on September 18. On the same day, it was directed to the Legislative Office and BEOS. Then for opinions and consultations. Moreover, KPRP talked about the possibility of "freezing" as early as September 17 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ THE DAY BEFORE THE PROJECT WAS SUBMITTED TO THE SEJM! So first, a narrative about freezing was created, and only later did the Marshal receive the bill 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Are you communicating with the rest of the "experts" in your office?? Next, we hear that the government deliberately keeps prices high because it wants to profit from VAT and dividends from Orlen. Proof? None was provided! A higher price may mean higher nominal VAT revenues. Orlen can pay dividends to shareholders. But one does not imply the other: this is NOT proof that the government deliberately keeps fuel prices high. This is attributing a motive without providing evidence 🤦♂️ Then you sign the law and say: "Every zloty obtained from this law must be spent on reducing fuel prices." A moment earlier, you conceded that the law DOES NOT CONTAIN a mechanism for passing that money on to reduce prices 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Exactly. So it "mustn't." This is your political demand, not the legal effect of the signed law 🤷♂️ Moody’s? Yes. Here, the fact is a fact: Poland's rating was lowered from A2 to A3. But why was there no information that at the same time, the outlook was changed from negative to STABLE? Why does the rating decision then create a vision that "tomorrow there may not be enough for pensions and armaments"? #Polska #Polityka #Fakty (translated)
What harm is there in promising?! In the 2024 election campaign, Aleksander Miszalski promised a yearly ticket for public transport for students at a price of 365 PLN. In December 2025, a law was passed where the price of that ticket was 470 PLN. In the justification, the president explained that Kraków already subsidizes nearly 65 percent of the costs of operating public transport, and with rising costs of energy, fuel, and salaries, it is necessary to adjust the rates to maintain the quality of transport services at the current level. On November 28, 2025, city councilor Michał Ciechowski submitted an amendment to the law to help fulfill the president’s promise of the ticket for 365 PLN. It was rejected by the Kraków City Council, where the majority belongs to KO/Left. In 2026, Monika Piątkowska announces that the proposal will be implemented! The money has been found! Campaigns perform miracles! #Kraków #wybory2024 #komunikacjamiejska (translated)
