Parliamentary elections in spring preferred by politicians and public alike

Parliamentary elections should always take place in the spring, because then newly-formed governments have enough time to prepare their budget project. That is the opinion of 47% of respondents to a public opinion poll conducted by Pracownia Badan Spolecznych. 18% did not find that argument convincing and insist autumn is a better time for elections. For 23% of respondents, it is not a matter of great importance, while 12% replied that they do not know which season is better. The majority of politicians, especially from the opposition, also share the opinion of the majority of respondents. President Aleksander Kwasniewski is also sympathetic to the idea of shortening Parliament's term. Only politicians of Solidarity Election Action (AWS) are openly against the idea, and without their votes it is impossible to achieve the majority of votes required to dissolve the Sejm.(Rzeczpospolita, p.A1) A.D.
