The Senate Pact has a symbolic dimension. I am convinced that just as we managed to draw up a common list for the Senate with mutual respect and understanding for our own reasons, after winning the election it will be easier for us to establish cooperation – said PO President Donald Tusk.
Tusk on a “very important day”
At Thursday’s press conference of the leaders of: PO, New Left, PSL and Poland2050, it was announced that work on the second edition of the Senate Pact has been completed and agreement has been reached on all 100 constituencies.
This is a very important day. After very hard, intensive and very substantive work, we secured joint candidates in the Senate Pact, including a highly effective democratic project in the Senate elections
Tusk said.
He noted that “the Senate Pact also has a symbolic dimension”.
I am convinced that just as we managed to draw up a common list for the Senate with mutual respect and understanding for our own reasons, so after winning the election it will be easier for us to establish cooperation
– said the head of Civic Platform.
The co-chair of the New Left, Włodzimierz Czarzasty, said that “he can assure you one thing – about working very, very hard for the Senate Pact, which left within the fifteen places you agreed to take care of, among others, for Warsaw , Katowice, Opole, Kielce – we will do everything we can to win together,” said Czarzasty.
Agreement on a hundred districts
Senator Zygmunt Franckiewicz stated that after the negotiations an agreement had been reached to optimize the result.
This doesn’t mean there won’t be adjustments, which are still going on, even for arbitrary reasons, but we’ve agreed on all 100 districts and this is the most important
– said Senator Frankiewicz.
He added that the team that prepared the Senate pact has been working for a long time. Frankiewicz thanked the team members: Marcin Kierwiński, Piotr Zgorzelski, Michał Kobosko and Dariusz Wieczorek.
Most importantly, after long preparations, we have come to an agreement, where we are guided above all by optimizing the result, i.e. maximizing the result of the opposition parties
he stressed.
Kosiniak-Kamysz: I believe the pact will repeat the success of 2019.
The president of PSL addressed the voters of all formations that are part of the Senate Pact.
We come from different committees, but none of our formations will get in each other’s way in this Senate election
– said Kosiniak-Kamysz.
He said the Senate Pact will repeat the success of 2019 in this year’s elections.
It is great that you then gained confidence and entrusted the reins of the Senate to the democratic opposition. We did not disappoint. I am firmly convinced that this group, which will grow after these elections thanks to your decision, will now function even more efficiently
– said the head of the PSL.
He thanked the senators present who, he said, had held the majority in the Senate against pressure for four years. At the same time, he asked voters to support the Senate Pact candidates.
We are new here, but we are very happy to participate in this agreement, in the Senate Pact, which is a demonstration of what we care about in politics
– said the leader of Poland 2050 Szymon Hołownia. He noted that Third Way politicians (co-created with PSL) care about solving people’s problems, not politicians.
By solving them in a way that shows people that there is hope, that a new policy is possible
– added.
He said the Senate Pact is the only solution that can lead to the Senate, which will emerge after the elections on October 15, being democratic and “defending us against the coalition of lawlessness and injustice that threatens us” from PiS . and the Confederacy.
It will be the Senate that will introduce a new quality to politics. He will finally introduce civic politics in Warsaw salons
– he said.
