-- Poland’s opposition is on track for a majority in Sunday’s election, an exit poll showed, an upset that would deny the ruling nationalists a third term and steer the country back into the European mainstream.The Civic Platform under former European Council President Donald Tusk won 32% of the vote, according to the Ipsos survey for the country’s main broadcasters. The Third Way alliance had 13%, with the Left party at 8.
“This is the end of the bad times, the end of Law & Justice rule,” Tusk told jubilant supporters in Warsaw after exit poll results were announced. “Poland won, democracy won.” A win for Tusk would also mark a shift in the tide of populist forces in Europe. Slovakia’s Robert Fico, a former premier and ally of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, is set to return to power this month after winning on a campaign to halt military aid to Ukraine and migration.
Monetary policy would also likely be impacted, since the central bank governor, Adam Glapinski, has close ties to the ruling party and was accused last month of seeking to tilt the playing field with an outsized interest-rate cut ahead of the vote.Poland’s formidable rise won’t be tempered by election hostility
