In a recent poll conducted by IBRiS for Radio Zet, 16.9 percent of Poles named Rafał Trzaskowski as the politician they would most like to see gathered around the Easter table. Close behind, 14.5 percent chose Mateusz Morawiecki, and 12.1 percent preferred Donald Tusk for the same occasion. Jarosław Kaczyński was mentioned by 8.7 percent of respondents as a desired Easter guest.
The data, shared by Radio Zet, shows the ranking of politicians respondents would most like to join them for Easter breakfast. The breakdown from the IBRiS poll lists the following preferences: Rafał Trzaskowski 16.9 percent; Mateusz Morawiecki 14.5 percent; Donald Tusk 12.1 percent; Jarosław Kaczyński 8.7 percent; Sławomir Mentzen 4.2 percent; Szymon Hołownia 3.4 percent; Włodzimierz Czarzasty 2.8 percent; Michał Kołodziejczak 2.7 percent; Zbigniew Ziobro 2.6 percent; Adrian Zandberg 2.6 percent; Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz 2.1 percent; Robert Biedroń 1 percent; Don’t know/Don’t know 26.4 percent.
Trailing in the survey, Trzaskowski and Tusk received zero points from particular voter groups in some segments of the electorate. Radio Zet notes that 4 percent of opposition voters would welcome Jarosław Kaczyński at the Easter table, and 2 percent would invite Mateusz Morawiecki. Among United Right voters, there were no voters who expressed a desire to share Easter breakfast with Rafał Trzaskowski or Donald Tusk, according to the station.
The IBRiS study, commissioned by Radio Zet, was conducted on March 31 to April 1, 2023. The national sample comprised 1,100 respondents and used the CATI method to gather responses. This approach allowed researchers to capture a snapshot of political sympathies across Poland during the Easter period, revealing how voters across different blocs imagine a symbolic social gathering with national leaders. These results illustrate the public perception of these figures at a specific moment in time and offer insights into the resonance of named politicians beyond their formal roles.
Overall, the results highlight a mixed field of preferred Easter guests, with Trzaskowski, Morawiecki, and Tusk leading in desire to join the holiday table, while a sizable share remains unsure or unwilling to forecast such an invitation. The data underscores the varied associations voters hold with current political figures and how holiday rituals intersect with political life in contemporary Poland.
