Among the most recognizable PiS figures, next to Jarosław Kaczyński, Mateusz Morawiecki stands out as a prominent name. A large portion of the public—nearly 97 percent—recognizes him, and a majority, about two-thirds, expresses trust. Mariusz Błaszczak is noted for the highest level of trust among party politicians according to a survey conducted by United Surveys for DGP and RMF FM.

The findings appear in today’s edition of the newspaper.

According to the report, the most recognizable politicians in Law and Justice, aside from the party leader Jarosław Kaczyński, include former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki with 96.5 percent recognition, his predecessor Beata Szydło at 96.1 percent, and the former head of the Defence Ministry, Mariusz Błaszczak, at 94.2 percent.

Also prominent are former Education Minister Przemysław Czarnek with 89.4 percent recognition and Joachim Brudziński, a former Minister of the Interior and Administration, at 80.6 percent.

These figures come from the same survey.

In the discussion, it is noted that recognition does not always correspond with trust.

Among the most recognizable figures, Brudziński stands out as the sole exception with under 50 percent who say, “I know them and I don’t trust them.”

The report emphasizes that selecting a new face for PiS will be significant in the context of next year’s presidential elections.

Among voters currently opposing the ruling party, Mariusz Błaszczak is viewed most favorably, with 73.2 percent confidence. Former prime ministers also perform well in this group: Beata Szydło with 72.1 percent and Mateusz Morawiecki with 67.6 percent.

The survey, conducted by United Surveys for IBRiS using the CAWI/CATI method, queried a nationwide sample of 1,000 adult Poles from June 21 to 23.
