Komorowski announces elections date

Outgoing President Bronisław Komorowski announced that the parliamentary elections will be held on October 25. "It is the date that allows the State Electoral Commission (PKW) to move relatively smoothly from counting the September referendum votes to [parliamentary] election-related activities. I have already informed PM Ewa Kopacz and Marshal of the Sejm Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska," Komorowski said during a press conference. President Komorowski has also said that he is absolutely ruling out running in the elections.
