Polish exit polls Monday signal the ouster of the ruling nationalist party after eight years in power and the rise of a centrist government under opposition leader Donald Tusk. The incumbent Law and Justice appeared to have won the most votes for any single party, but exit polls suggest a liberal bloc of parties will secure a parliamentary majority. As a result, the liberal parties can oust the incumbents, putting an end to eight years under their control, Reuters reported.
The government has also clashed with the EU over violations of democratic principles, leading to the freezing of billions of euros of pandemic recovery funds intended for Poland. Law and Justice wanted less EU authority in the 27 member countries. Though it has boosted military spending and been a strong supporter of Ukraine after the Russian invasion, their relationship has been strained recently over Ukrainian grain shipments through Poland.
