Sikorski versus Trzaskowski. KO presidential primary

– Who will become a candidate for the civilian Coalition for president in next year's election will be decided by all members of the KO by vote – said MFA head Radosław Sikorski after leaving the organization board. – I number on knightly competition with Rafał Trzaskowski – he said. – The real duel is the presidential election next year said the president of Warsaw. erstwhile asked if he was planning a run before the primaries, he replied that “the run had already taken place”. – I think Rafał Trzaskowski and I are well-known to voters, so we ask you to consider everyone ‘for’ and ‘against’ and I ask you to support – he said. He added that the vote would be held this month. – The date issue has not been told, but there is simply a will to settle it – he noted. Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced later that it would most likely be November 23.

– I've been reasoning about it a long time, and after quite a few conversations, I've said the best expression will be the primary due to the fact that we want to prove that we're a full democratic party. – said the president of Warsaw Rafał Trzaskowski just after 12. – We want to give the level to our members and our members, the full Civic Coalition, so that this mandate that will be obtained is as strong as possible, due to the fact that our candidate must be absolutely certain that we are like 1 fist, that all our members and all our members support this candidate that will be elected – he added. He noted that "the real conflict is the presidential election next year". – We have known each another for many, many years, and we value each another and, of course, we want these primaries to be built up with only affirmative emotions. It is most crucial for us to focus solely on our advantages and focus on what is most crucial to us, namely the thought of how to win the presidential election said Trzaskowski.

– The unanimity of the board shows that this decision has been made by a common majority “After the civilian coalition authorities, the vice-president of the Boris Budka Civic Platform said. – Unlike our opponents, the Platform has democratic principles and each of us has 1 vote. That's how we choose the head of the party, that's how we choose the organization authorities in the regions. This is simply a very good custom, and hence the proposal which fell down was unanimously accepted – he said. He pointed out that they would be primaries throughout the Civic Coalition, “as a result, members and members of the remaining groups that form the Civic Coalition will besides participate in them”. – When there are 2 large candidates, erstwhile the organization has democratic principles, the party's strength is that it gives specified a decision to all members. There is no second specified formation in Poland as the Civic Platform, which in this way would decide the most crucial things.

Senate Marshal Tomasz Grodzki said it would be "a selection process for a candidate in line with the expectations of the full party". – And that decision was made on the board of directors, so it's a process of maximum democratic, giving the right to vote to any organization associate and our coalition members who have accepted this mode. – he noted. He added that "this will be done quickly, due to the fact that time is running".

According to him, "a individual who receives recommendations from all organization members will have a very strong mandate to win the presidential election". MON Deputy Chief Cezary Tomczyk reported on social media that the primaries were an initiative of Rafał Trzaskowski. – Rafał Trzaskowski in connection with the appearance of the second candidate proposed to conduct the primary in the Civic Coalition. Everyone agreed it was a very good and very honorable idea," he wrote on platform X.
