Today the ultimate Court will address the issue of the importance of the elections of the president of Poland. The gathering of the full home of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs was scheduled at 13 p.m., it will be public and broadcast live.
Doubts and Controversies Grow
Let us remind you: in order to recognise elections as important, a resolution of the ultimate Court is needed. It is issued on the basis of an election study presented by the State Election Commission and after the SN has recognised all protests against the President's election.
There are any delicate points in this puzzle. 1 of them is an SN chamber to make a decision. In 2018, the Law and Justice organization introduced changes in regulations and since then the examination of electoral protests and the determination of the validity of elections is carried out by the then established Chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs. Before that, it was done by the Insurance and Public Affairs Department.
Wrong room, right?
The Chamber of Control has been filled with alleged neo-judges, is not recognised by the government, the EU Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights. But it works.
Minister of Justice and lawyer General Adam Bodnar requested exclusion from ruling on the protests and designation of the elections of the full home of Extraordinary Control of the SN and the transfer of that decision to the Labour Chamber. And SN CEO Margaret Manowska refused.
She besides refused to hand over the case file to the lawyer General. On Monday, Adam Bodnar sent a position to the ultimate Court on the validity of the elections.
"It is simply a flagrant violation of the principles set out in the Electoral Code, the ultimate Court Act and the civilian Procedure Code" - wrote Adam Bodnar.
In turn, the talker of the Sejm, Simon Holovnia, announced that if the SN does not declare the President's election nullified, or if no another unexpected circumstances occur, the National Assembly will be convened on August 6. That's erstwhile Charles Nawrocki will take his oath and take office.
Protests rejected
The second delicate issue is electoral protests. As we know, there have been large and amazing mistakes in many election committees. Many people request a recalculation of all votes, respective tens of thousands of electoral protests have been submitted.
SN wholesalely rejected them, being reasonable to consider only a fewer or several. However, they did not affect the result of the elections – stated the judges of the contested chamber.
I don't think anyone has any uncertainty that the unrecognized ultimate Court Chamber will consider the President's election important. But the controversy will remain.
A public gathering on the validity of the election of the president of the Republic of Poland will be held on Tuesday at 13 p.m. in the largest SN room. It will be broadcast by television, and it will besides be on the ultimate Court YouTube channel.
