Presidential partying: Krzaklewski celebrates 50, Kwasniewski rocks the Barn
Ten presidential candidates have already delivered signatures of
supporters, required for their registration as candidates, to the State
Electoral Commission (PKW). Each candidate is required to file 100,000
signatures supporting their candidacy by midnight today. President
Aleksander Kwasniewski's campaign filed 1.7 million signatures on Tuesday
but PKW will only count up to 100,000. Yesterday, Marian Krzaklewski
celebrated his 50th birthday by filing some 200,000 signatures. Meanwhile,
Kwasniewski took part in a youth rally in his support at Warsaw rock club
Stodola (the Barn). He used the opportunity to present his campaign slogan
"Everyone's home - Poland" as well as give a sample of his singing skills,
proving that he lacks talent in that particular field, witnesses said.
