Between Zandberg and Senishyn. In the fresh Left, serious concerns about Biejat result

It was expected to be better, and so far it looks like 5 and 10 years ago.

The last fewer months have been a real temper swing in Magdalena Biejat's life. Last year she threw gloves to Rafał Trzaskowski in the election for president of Warsaw. Six months later, she left the home organization Together and joined the fresh Left. A fewer months passed and another coup – fresh Left decided to have her run in the presidential election.

But was not the main favourite inside the party. Much more hope was attached to the household minister Agnieszka Dziemianovich-BąkBut this 1 didn't want to slow down the hotel post. “She preferred to focus on her work in the ministry and, above all, decided that she did not want to take up this challenge,” says Małgorzata Prokop-Paczkowska, associate of the Left in her last term. After long weeks, fresh Left placed on Biejat. – She is simply a very good candidate, due to the fact that despite her young age she is simply a serious, responsible, honest politician – says Prokop-Paczkowska.

The point is that Biejat polls are down and possible voters do not seem to share the opinion that the Vice Marshal of the legislature is "a very good candidate". On the contrary, most studies show that the 5th place in this race is its peak. The Left Staff see it, so Dziemianowicz-Bąk appears more and more frequently next to the politician, a more recognizable and influential household minister. It was Biejat who announced the liquidation of the Church Fund, both ladies praised the introduction of longer maternity leave on social media, and on the day of presentation of the collected more than 400,000 signatures Dziemianowicz-Bąk stood side by side with Biejat.

– In this situation, there must be only 1 rule: All hands on deck.. I haven't changed my head in a year that a joint coalition candidate would be better. But now it is very good that Agnieszka Dziemianowicz-Bąk supports Biejat – Senator Piotr Wozniak from the Left Club believes.

Elections 2025. Magdalena Biejat like Magdalena Orkurek and Robert Biedron?

All of our interlocutors are convinced that the candidate of the Left is facing an highly hard task. More frequently than about the fight for the highest deposits we hear voices about She shared the destiny of Magdalena Orkurek and Robert Biedron. Let us remind that 10 and 5 years ago the candidates of the left in the presidential election achieved disastrous results of 2%. And remember that we are talking about a organization that could play this game – for 10 years the president of this formation was Aleksander Kwasniewski, to this day the best rated head of state after 1989.

Today, any leftist politician can only dream about the results of Kwasniewski. And although the authoritative activists of this formation praise the abilities of the Biejat, in the spheres they say straight that their candidate "goes to the 2% protocol", i.e. repetition of the consequence of Biedronia and Cucumber.

– It's the consequence of not drawing conclusions and wishful thinking. For many years, my head formation has been wishful. If there's individual nice, good and nice, they meet the criteria.. No, due to the fact that the president should be a rock. Our candidates did not have specified advantages," says Interia Marek Balt, until late a Euro MP who in the last year was conflicted with the current leadership of the fresh Left, as a consequence of which he ceased to be a associate of the party.

Presidential election. 3 left-wing candidates

There are precisely 3 candidates on the broad left. This is Biejat, Adrian Zandberg, but besides Joanna Senyszyn, who late announced that she had collected over 100,000 signatures. And even if it seemed that a politician with a distinctive speech of voice was already far from the "first league", it might be different.

– I'm amazed the prof. was able to sign. She is undoubtedly a distinctive and recognizable figure. And that in politics matters. All this could origin an even greater fragmentation of left-wing voices. Her start simply means less votes for Magdalena Biejat and Adrian Zandberg. That's certain as twice – there is no uncertainty about Senator Wozniak.

– I'm not gonna lie, and I'm just gonna say she's more recognizable than Magda Biejat. Especially in this electorate of the erstwhile SLD," he adds.

Joanna Senyszyn is simply a prominent politician. She has a group of admirers, which shows that she collected signatures. However, I think that Poles are betting on younger people in this race – says Małgorzata Prokop-Paczkowska.

– Prof. Senyszyn is simply a much more serious candidate than Biejat. I do not regulation out that even she will gain more left-wing votes. Moreover, prof. Senyszyn can win the largest number of votes on the Left. Adrian Zandberg is not acceptable by the mediate of the left, the left of the old type, but has his support. It may be that Biejat in these 3 will take 3rd place Marek Balt wonders.

The left-wing electorate will surely share even more, due to the fact that already investigation shows that any left-wing voters are going to vote not only for Biejat, Zandberg and Senyszyn, but just to Trzaskowski. interior competition in the left is very interesting, however, due to the fact that we have respective duels here: experiences (Senyszyn) with youth (Bejat, Zandberg), prestigious clashes of erstwhile co-leaders Together (Zandberg, Biejat), as well as economical left (Zandberg) with pro-female left (Bejat, Senyszyn).

– No 1 from the left truly has a chance to enter the second round: neither Biejat nor Zandberg nor Senyszyn – Senator Wozniak tells us. The game is about something else. – If it turns out that Biejat's score is worse than Zandberg's score, it may turn out that long-term left wind will fly towards the organization Together. And this could mean a serious blackout. - He does.

On the another hand, our interviewer believes that interior competition in the left is of small importance on a macro-political scale. – I've been in my club for a year to put out a joint candidate within the governing coalitionj – reminds Wozniak. – I already told you that going towards a communicative about a difference in government is not a good idea. This communicative I'm talking about, unfortunately, is gone. We see that now the coalitions are throwing mud at each other, so the question is, who's profiting? In my opinion, the biggest player on the government's side is the Civic Coalition, but besides the Confederacy," he adds.

Presidential election 2025. Left split

Senator Wozniak convinces that he was trying to impress his clubmates that The mediocre consequence of their candidate may rise questions among voters, why is fresh Left even here? In his opinion, exposing a candidate who can't number on a twelve percent support was more risky than a start like today.

– In unconventional times, you gotta make unconventional decisions. If the Left had decided to support individual who had the best chance of winning, the voters would consider it evidence of maturity. A different strategy has been chosen – says Wozniak.

Should fresh Left so let the presidential elections go?

Prokop-Paczkowska: – The political organization that wants to number on the marketplace must exhibit its candidate. This way he presents his program. Even if he doesn't win, he must effort to put his mark on the campaign. It's the right thing to do.

Marek Balt: – Left should have its candidate, but it should be a man who will inspire social confidence. Biejat is simply a candidate I'd be afraid to trust with 2 ball bearings due to the fact that 1 would lose and the another would spoil.

Who should the Left be? Escape from responsibility

The erstwhile Euro MP points out that there are candidates in the Left who could compete in specified elections and would respond more to the needs of society than Biejat. However, he clearly believes that the organization leader should take greater responsibility.

– I always thought the organization leader should be a presidential candidate and a prime minister candidate. That's why you're the leader to regulation and implement the organization program. Being a coach and moving from work for the results of your formation is ridiculous. Support for the left clearly shows that left voters do not feel connected to the party, they misjudge the authorities," Balt adds.

Senator Wozniak: – To be honest, a much better candidate – from a political, not individual point of view – would be the president of Czarzasty. It's different. I hope that the Biejat polls I know, I like and respect very much, will increase again, due to the fact that it would besides be good for Trzaskowski before the second round.

Balt adds: – If Trzaskowski wins, it will be a hard time for the Left. I do not regulation out that as a consequence, any of the club's politicians will compete in the next election from the KO list.

Meanwhile, the stakes at which the game is played are even higher, due to the fact that right after the election, Donald Tusk is about to scope the rate announced by large government reconstruction. Consequently, Poland is to have the smallest offices in Europe. The question remains how strong the cards will be in coalition talks after the election.
