Election campaign

An appeals court ordered Kaczyński to retract his testimony on two television channels.
2nd ballot
An electoral debate took place on June 27th and 30th and was broadcast by the three largest Polish TV channels - TVP , TVN and Polsat .
The first debate was fairly even, with a slight advantage for Komorowski. In a telephone poll by the GfK Polonia , however, 52 percent saw Komorowski and only 28 percent Kaczyński as the winner.
In the second debate, according to a GfK survey, 41 percent thought Komorowski, 37 percent Kaczyński was the winner, and 18 percent saw a balanced result.
Opinion polls
The most promising candidates were Bronisław Komorowski and Jarosław Kaczyński. In surveys at the beginning of May, Komorowski came to 45 to 50 percent, Kaczyński to 34 to 36 percent. In the last polls before the election, Komorowski got 44 to 42 percent of the vote, Kaczyński 29 to 35 percent.
