Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Poland's Presidential Race Too Close to Call Ahead of Decisive Runoff

Caption: Poland’s Presidential Race Too Close to Call Ahead of Decisive Runoff. Centrist Warsaw Mayor Rafał Trzaskowski narrowly led the first round with 31.4%, just ahead of conservative Karol Nawrocki at 29.5% - According to Politico. But with right-wing and far-right candidates taking over half the total vote, Nawrocki now has the upper hand drawing support from those opposed to Prime Minister Tusk’s struggling coalition. Trzaskowski, once favored, now faces pressure to win over left-wing voters and libertarians while distancing himself from Tusk’s unfulfilled reform promises. As both sides scramble for support, Poland’s democratic direction — and its role in Europe — hang in the balance. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
