In Szczecin on Saturday, PiS chief of staff and MEP Joachim Brudziński addressed the audience, emphasizing that democracy is not an offense to anyone, and that his party is not driven by hatred like some opponents. He warned that if PiS moves to the opposition, it would scrutinize the new government and hold its decisions to account.
During a press conference in Szczecin, Brudziński summarized the results of the parliamentary elections. In Szczecin’s electoral district No. 41, the Law and Justice Electoral Commission received 159,575 votes, accounting for 28.79 percent, while in Koszalin district No. 40 it gathered 101,023 votes, which was 31.36 percent.
Brudziński reiterated that his party does not equate democracy with personal offense and stated that West Pomerania lacks celebratory color. He conveyed that the political mood in the region is sober and focused on policy rather than spectacle.
The PiS chief of staff declared that if the opposition’s drive for power is so strong that it forms a government, it will face a difficult path in the western part of the country and in Szczecin itself. He stressed that the party would not engage in street clashes or incendiary rhetoric, and noted that many substantive projects already implemented should not be abandoned.
Brudziński asserted that if PiS remains in opposition, the new administration would not enjoy an easy ride in Western Pomerania. He pledged to monitor the actions of the government and to ensure that what was achieved for the region over the past eight years would not be wasted.
Two long-standing PiS deputies who ran in district No. 41, Leszek Dobrzyński and Michał Jach, would step away from the Sejm benches. The new MPs from the region would include West Pomeranian Voivode Zbigniew Bogucki and Szczecin councilor Dariusz Matecki, along with Marek Gróbarczyk, Artur Szałabawka, and others who would continue their seats. In addition, three PiS MPs were slated to run from district No. 40 to the Sejm, including Czesław Hoc, Małgorzata Golińska, and Paweł Głosernaker, who secured new terms, continuing the party’s representation in the chamber.
The party’s leadership underscored the role of its MPs as stewards of the issues important to Law and Justice voters. Brudziński spoke of safeguarding the nearly 7.5 million votes the party had received, the programs introduced, and the investments carried out, positioning the MPs as custodians of these commitments regardless of parliamentary majority shifts.
When asked about missteps during the election campaign, the chief of staff insisted that Law and Justice had secured victory in the elections. He noted his hands-on approach, saying he had made himself available to the party leader at the first post-election meeting and that his work as chief of staff was aligned with the leadership’s decisions.
Asked about the likelihood of a United Right government, Brudziński suggested that today it did not appear probable. The focus remained on stabilizing the coalition prospects and translating electoral support into effective governance, with the party aiming to maintain influence in key regions, including West Pomerania.
Additional coverage highlighting party mobilization and regional support appeared in related reports, signaling ongoing efforts to sustain momentum across the country. These developments reflect the broader electoral landscape and the strategic considerations of Poland’s governing bloc during the early post-election period.
