Gronkiewicz-Waltz no longer Warsaw Mayor says PM

It is still unknown whether new elections will take place in Warsaw, not to mention several hundred other cities where local government members made the same mistake. Civic Platform (PO) has announced that it will fight tooth and nail for its candidate's mandate in court. "The voivode, Minister or the Prime Minister cannot state that my mandate has expired," announced Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz. "This has to be done by the courts." According to PO politicians this situation will be used by Law and Justice (PiS) to appoint a commissioner who could rule Warsaw for the whole term in office. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A1) A.K.
