Polish Presidential Elections 2025 - Who's Ahead in the Polls?

Poland will hold a presidential election runoff on June 1 between Rafał Trzaskowski and Karol Nawrocki, who are tied in the polls at 46.3%.
The election follows a closely contested first round and occurs amid a legislative blockade by the opposition-aligned president controlling veto and armed forces powers.
Trzaskowski, Warsaw's liberal mayor and Civic Coalition candidate, refused a far-right pledge opposing Ukraine's NATO entry, while both candidates took tough stances on migration and welfare.
Over a three-day period, the Liberté! Foundation invested approximately PLN 132,000 to PLN 195,000 in pro-voter turnout advertisements targeting left-leaning audiences, outspending the combined official campaign budgets during that time.
The election outcome will shape Poland's future in the EU and NATO, influence reform efforts, and determine whether the current governing coalition can advance its agenda.
