Information circulated in the media that the National Electoral Commission had not granted accreditation to international election observers. As the wPolityce.pl portal has shown, accreditation has already been granted to major bodies such as the Council of Europe and the OSCE. The situation is more intricate for the many other groups that have applied for observer status.
This diversity of outcomes helps explain why the process can take longer. The wPolityce.pl source notes that among those seeking observer status are Russians, Belarusians, and other citizens from countries within the Commonwealth of Independent States.

The issue demands careful verification, especially given the goal of preserving the integrity and security of the electoral process. Officials emphasize that observer accreditation is not just a ceremonial step but a safeguard that requires due diligence and clear criteria.
The elections are scheduled for Sunday, October 15. Polling stations will open at 7 a.m. and close at 9 p.m. At present, an electoral lull is observed as campaigns ease into a quiet period ahead of the vote.
