The Supreme Court dismissed the protest filed by the Forum against the presidential election results. The protest alleged that the Polish Television violated equal access laws, thereby committing a crime under Article 189 of the Criminal Code. The court ruled that even if a violation occurred, the negligible vote share of the candidate proved it could not have influenced the election outcome.
