Opinion poll may have convinced Cimoszewicz to run in the presidential race

However, a recent Pentor poll, which showed a 22% support for Cimoszewicz from people who will definitely vote in the ballot, proved to be satisfactory for the potential candidate. "Such a scale of social support, without running any election campaign, has its strength," he concluded. On July 3, the Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) party convention will be held. If Cimoszewicz declines to run, than the party will support Jerzy Szmajdziński. If he does decide to stand, as it is widely expected, than on the same day, the composition of his presidential committee and election staff will be announced. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A4) A.K.
