30.05.2025The Final Campaign Day Before Silence
Morning polls presented conflicting results about who leads between Trzaskowski and Nawrocki, with differences within statistical margins of error. The PiS-backed campaign released recordings of Nawrocki's wife defending her prosecutor career against gangsters, while political attacks escalated with Budka sarcastically suggesting the Kaczyński brothers led football hooligans.

Security concerns emerged as Radio ZET reported the electoral commission sought ABW clarification about Nawrocki's security clearance. Economic news provided relief with inflation dropping to 4.1% in May, marking the first monthly price decline since 2023.

Final polling showed record voter engagement, with 235,000 people obtaining voting certificates and nearly 700,000 Poles abroad registered to vote. Multiple sources emphasized the race remained statistically tied, requiring maximum mobilization. Speaker Hołownia delivered an address calling for building rather than fighting, while campaign silence officially began at 10:03 PM, ending what sources described as the harshest campaign since 1989.

Jedną z ofiar wojny handlowej Donalda Trumpa stał się dolar. Nie tylko traci na wartości, ale co gorsza – na zaufaniu i znaczeniu. Powraca hasło dedolaryzacji, czyli odejścia od amerykańskiej waluty jako najważniejszego środka płatniczego świata. Ale czy bez dolara da się żyć?
