Marcin Bogdan: WHAT ARE YOU DOING, ROAD?

Romania is so a large country with an established position in European democracy. And this is Romania, December 6, 2024, just before the second circular of the presidential election, The Constitutional Court annulled the 1st circular of elections, citing indeterminate information from peculiar services. In this way, the elections were cancelled, in which the left-wing Liberal candidates suffered the defeat, including, above all, erstwhile president Klaus Werner Iohannis, a politician of German nationality. The winner of the cancelled I circular of elections was Calin Georgescu, who received 22.94% of voters' support. It was decided to re-schedul the elections, and their deadline was set for 4 May 2025. It can be said that in this symbolic way, Romania was just before Poland, in which the presidential elections are scheduled for 18 May. The scandalous decision of the Romanian Constitutional Court resulted in consolidation of opposition parties towards ruling left-wing liberal groups, besides caused consolidation among the voters themselves. fresh polls indicated that support for Calin Georgescu had definitely increased and began to approach 50%. It became a real chance to settle May elections already in the first round.

In the current situation, the Romanian Central Election Office on 8 March cancelled the candidacy of Calin Georgesc in the 4 May presidential election. The message of reasons for this unprecedented decision states that more than a 1000 objections to Georgesc's candidacy were received to the Electoral Office, objections related to, as stated, "with his anti-democratic and extremist viewsIt’s okay. ” The decision is so absurd that even left-wing liberal media in Poland are having problem choosing words describing what happened. 1 Polish-language web portal said that “extreme right-wing candidate Calin Georgescu has been withdrawn from the Romanian Central Election Office’. In this way, it is possible to "retreat" and, to be honest, unfairly deprive any person, even 1 who is supported by half the citizens, of being able to run. You can in Romania, you can in Poland. Impossible?

In Poland, first the State Election Commission and then the Minister of Finance blocked the payment of the PiS subsidies due. The deficiency of financial resources (which is simply a full of nearly PLN 100 million) importantly limited the conduct of an election run supported by PiS by civilian candidate Karol Nawrocki. But this obstacle has been neutralized. The PiS launched an effective online campaign. The support of Karol Nawrocki had a clear growth tendency. It was individual thanks to Dariusz Matecki, who in his professional activity pierced the magic number of 20 million alleged views. He had to be arrested. The fact that his successful political online agitation was the only reason for his arrest was indirectly granted by a court that failed to take into account the prosecutor's request for 3 months' detention. The court ruled a two-month detention, after all, the election is in two, not in 3 months. In order to guarantee that the situation does not get out of control, the European Union announced a convocation, as they themselves have set, a circular table on presidential elections in Poland. The circular table of the EU will most likely decide whether to let Karol Nawrocki to vote to cancel the elections in the event of his eventual win and to entrust the duties of president of the Marshal of the Sejm, or to exclude from the Nawrocki election, so that Rafał Trzaskowski will take over the President's Office as the winner of the recognized and approved elections.

And here's the key question. What will we do when, like Romania, in Poland besides the National Election Commission excludes (or withdraws, as the leftist media will call it) the candidate candidate Karol Nawrocki. What do we do? What we do as a community, what we all do as a citizen. What are you gonna do, Rodak? Don't tell me this isn't the time to ask questions like this, don't tell me you don't think it's gonna happen, and if it does, you'll think about it. erstwhile you were on your way to an exam, did you presume that you would not be looking for answers to your questions during the exam? But did you effort to prepare for the test in advance? Now you will besides have an exam, an highly crucial exam, an exam of Polishness. Therefore, do not postpone answers to the question:

What are you gonna do, Rodak?

‘Strange is the planet where there is inactive much evil.’ But Czesław Niemen besides sang that “There are more people of good will and I firmly believe that this planet will never die due to them..’

And I believe there are more people of good will, so I ask you, what are you going to do, Rodak? I ask you, who attended the civilian candidate's support rally, what will you do erstwhile this candidate is arbitrarily excluded from the election? I ask you, who has volunteered to be a associate of the Electoral Commission or a husband of trust to guarantee the integrity of these choices, what will you do if this honesty is challenged before the election, by excluding a candidate? I ask you, who fervently prays for our Homeland and orders Holy Mass for God's will to elect a president, what will you do if you are simply stripped of this choice? I besides ask you, who believed in the statements of politicians and voted for 1 of the parties forming the current government, but you are an honest man who does not accept fraud and embezzlement, what will you do if 1 of the candidates is excluded from the election, just to make the candidate supported by you become president, but not as a consequence of a choice, but a top-down political decision? I besides ask you, who did not intend to vote at all, to avoid politics and to accept the choices made by your friends and neighbors, what will you do erstwhile you learn that by excluding any candidate, the election of your country's president will become a fiction and democracy will replace dictatorship?

I said, what are you gonna do, Rodaku? No, I'm not asking. This asks Poland, our common homeland. Poland does not ask what to do for you. Poland asks what you will do for her, now, in 2025.

What are you gonna do, Rodak?
