Leading the pack
That's according to a new survey by polling group PBS, for daily Rzeczpospolita. It says the Law and Justice (PiS) party's candidate would take 19 percent of the vote, a jump of five percent in just over a month.
Some analysts are crediting the extensive media coverage of PiS's recent election convention, during which Kaczyński announced his candidacy, for the increase.
Zbigniew Religa, the famous heart surgeon, was knocked off the top spot into second place with 17 percent support - a drop of seven points.
The Democratic Left Alliance's candidate, Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz, gained five points to come in third, with Donald Tusk adding four percent to his support base, to total 14 percent.
Andzej Lepper of Self Defence (SO) and Marek Borowski of Polish Social Democracy both dropped two points each, to 13 percent and 11 percent respectively.
The poll was conducted on March 19-20, and comprised the answers of 1,064 people. CBOS polled 1,025 people for their survey, which was taken on March 4-7.
