Polish Politics and Elections

[Double Carpet]

Hi all does anyone have a non-geoblocked link for Poland TV for the results programme?

Polls close 9pm local time?

Thanks!

I really can't see Duda losing, sorry.

Trzaskowski at 2-1 on Betfair if you think otherwise.

Would the exit poll model in votes abroad or not?

[Double Carpet]

TVP quoted DLA poll with 51.9 for Duda, not sure if that is exit poll or not.

Not until midnight local time I think?

There will be a "dump" of results with about 50% counted, unlike in most countries where you can follow the results by precinct in real time as they are counted.

Do posters think that the Polish reporting model allows greater room for rigging the election...?

Apparently midnight local time is an updated exit poll only (exit poll or based on partial vote count?) and NO official results will be released until the vote count is complete.

Interesting exit poll, but remember: the only country where you can be absolutely sure that the exit poll = the result is France.

That's because it isn't an exit poll, but a partial vote count.

2 hours after polls close and no results?

It's always been slow + record turnout + 3 different ballots to count.

I get that, but still, it's very, very slow.

I don't think they release the live count in Poland, it's more like they will show partial results with say 40 or 50% counted, so it could be a while yet. To my mind, it always feels potentially a bit dodgier and less transparent than a live count.

Due to the lack of a live count, the Poland election night is one of the dullest anywhere.
