We are not in the pre-election period, although the PSL result is not impressive – said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz, Minister of Funds and Regional Policy, Vice-President of Poland 2050, in the PAP Studio, referring to the research on the separate start of the elections for the parties forming the Third Way.
The Polish People’s Party without Poland 2050 has no chance of entering the Sejm – “Super Express” reported on Monday, citing a survey by the Pollster Research Institute. The survey shows that PSL, which would go to the elections on its own, without Szymon Hołownia’s party, would receive 1.67 percent. support.

Poland 2050 a lifeline for PSL?
When Pełczyńska-Nałęcz was asked in the PAP Studio whether she felt her party “brought PSL to the surface”, she replied that she was satisfied with the good result of Poland 2050.
However, the word ‘we are pulling out’ is a bit inappropriate, because we are not in the period before the parliamentary elections. Therefore, there is no such test for PSL today
– she added.
While this result is obviously not impressive, PSL will have its say on the matter
– emphasized Pełczyńska-Nałęcz.
In the research on party preferences, the launch of Poland 2050 and PSL was examined in two variants: jointly, as a third way, and independently. In the first case, TD could count on support of 10.06 percent. In this variant, ZP obtained 31.62 percent, KO – 31.48 percent, Konfederacja – 13.95 percent, Links – 9.13 percent. 3.76% would vote for another party.
