Poland Presidential Elections: Conservative Karol Nawrocki Wins In A Tight Contest | N18G

Conservative candidate Karol Nawrocki narrowly won Poland’s presidential runoff election, securing 50.89% of the vote against liberal Warsaw Mayor Rafał Trzaskowski, who received 49.11%. The tight race, following a closely contested first round, revealed deep political divisions within Poland, a key NATO and EU member on Europe’s eastern flank. An early exit poll had incorrectly suggested a Trzaskowski win, but late polling and official results confirmed Nawrocki's lead. Backed by Poland’s largest nationalist opposition party and endorsed by U.S. President Donald Trump, Nawrocki’s victory is expected to steer the country toward a more nationalist agenda. Celebrations in Warsaw included Romanian far-right figure George Simion and former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, who praised the result as a major win for both Europe and Christianity. The election outcome highlights rising nationalist sentiment in the region and marks a significant political shift in Poland's leadership and policy direction.
