KOD would win the election - poll

The coalition of some of the Polish government opposition parties would beat Law and Justice (PiS) party in the case of a general election, according to a new survey by pollster TNS for Gazeta Wyborcza, if they were to run under the KOD (Committee for the Defense of Democracy) banner. It shows that as much as 38 percent of Polish citizens would vote for a coalition consisting of five opposition parties - Civic Platform (PO), Nowoczesna, the Polish People's Party (PSL), Twój Ruch and Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) rather than for the current ruling Law and Justice (PiS), which got 33 percent of votes. Surveyed Poles choose other political parties as well: Kukiz'15 (13 percent), KORWiN (6 percent) and Partia Razem (3 percent of votes). About 7 percent of respondents hesitated or were not able to answer. The poll was conducted on May 10 surveying 1,000 Polish citizens aged 18 and above.
