On Thursday (7.12.2023) evening, the Sejm unanimously voted in favour of the resolution to set up a committee of enquiry to examine the legality, regularity and usefulness of the action taken to prepare and conduct the 2020 election of the president of Poland in the form of a correspondence vote. The issue of energy price frost was besides voted on.
The 2020 presidential election vote was attended by 446 parliamentarians, all in favour, even representatives of the United Right. Now Deputy talker of the Sejm Krzysztof Bosak (Confederation) reported that the Presidium of the Sejm had unanimously adopted a parity of the division of seats in the committee of enquiry on the envelope election “in a way that takes into account proportionality and at the same time gives all clubs the chance to sit” in it. KO will have 4 representatives, PiS – three, and the remainder of the clubs 1 each.
Let us remind that in 2021, Marian Banas, president of the ultimate Chamber of Control, spoke on the alleged “envelope elections”, which yet did not take place. On May 25, 2021, he reported that he was directing to the D.A.'s office a study of suspected crime by Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and ministers: Michał Dworczyk, Jack Sasin and Mariusz Kamiński. The case concerns presidential envelope elections which Morawiecki commissioned.
– The organisation and preparation of elections on the basis of an administrative decision should not take place and be without legal basis said Banas during the press conference. NIK then submitted notifications to the D.A. on suspicion of a crime committed by the Polish Post Office and the Management Board of the Polish safety Printing Works. The printing of electoral cards for envelope elections that were not held consumed over 70 million zlotys. The chief liable for throwing money in the mud was Minister of State Assets and Deputy Prime Minister Jacek Sasin.
