Poles vote in huge numbers for centrist opposition after 8 years of nationalist rule:
Poland gives support to centrist opposition after 8 years of nationalist rule
Partial results from 96% of voting districts in Poland’s general election have shown majority support for opposition parties. Those three parties are promising to repair the nation’s constitutional order and its relationship with allies including the European Union and Ukraine. Voters turned out in droves on Sunday to make their voices known after a bitter and emotional campaign. Officials said Monday that turnout was at nearly 74%. It was the highest in 34 years of democracy and surpassed the 63% who cast ballots in the historic 1989 vote that toppled communism. The result was a disappointment to the conservative ruling Law and Justice party which has governed for eight years on a nationalist and sometimes anti-European Union agenda. Final results are expected Tuesday.
