the result of the past June 28, the election of the 11 candidates for the presidency were only two: Andrzej Duda with 43.5 percent of the vote, and the mayor of Warsaw, rafał Trzaskowski from 30.46 percent. In addition to them, any serious voter support in the first round could boast an independent candidate Szymon Hołownia from 13.87 percent of the votes and a representative of the right-nationalist party “Confederation” Krzysztof Bosak from 6.78 percent. Duda directly on the voting day – immediately after the announcement of the first results addressed the electors of all the former contestants with the news that he has a lot in common with them. However, the subsequent performances showed that he has a very specific purpose.

it is Known that before the first round of the presidential elections candidates, as a rule, we try to rally the electorate, what do the sharp, sometimes controversial statements aimed at mobilizing like-minded people. And in the second round, the two finalists have to divide the electorate all been eliminated from the race candidates, and they soften the rhetoric, appeal to a more General slogan to cater to a larger number of voters. Such was the tactic of Andrzej Duda in 2015, when he won his first presidential elections in Poland. However, this time he obviously decided not to try his luck in the political field, where firmly established his rival. Given the fact that to win, one candidate must receive more than half of all votes, and at the disposal of the incumbent already has 43.5 per cent, his campaign has apparently calculated that it will be enough voter Bosak.

the First this drew the attention of the German media. This is not surprising. The fact that “the Confederation,” which was represented by Bosak, traditionally respectful to Russia, and a major threat to the security of Poland says Germany. And last Friday at a meeting with voters in the town of Boleslawiec, the President commented on the criticism in its address in the local tabloid Fakt: “Originating from the German group Axel Springer, which owns the newspaper Fakt, wants to influence the presidential elections in Poland? The Germans want to choose in Poland the President? It’s despicable, I don’t agree!” In addition, before the second round of Duda signed a draft amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits same-sex couples to adopt children. It no doubt will appeal to voters Bosak.

However, despite all these attempts, yet the current President has failed to achieve great success. Surveys show that today the chances of candidates equal to, and in some places Trzaskowski ahead of Duda at one to two percent.
