If not Belka, an autumn general election?
Sejm Speaker Józef Oleksy noted that with 46 votes required to appoint a candidate for Prime Minister, there could be as many as 10 such candidates. For example the Polish Peasant Party (PSL) is proposing its leader Janusz Wojciechowski, as well as former P.M. Waldemar Pawlak and Aleksander Łuczak. Meanwhile, Marek Borowski, leader of the Polish Social Democracy (SDPL) has proposed to leftist parties to support Belka, but only if Belka agrees to hold an autumn general election.
