The Supreme Court of Poland found violations of the Presidential Election Act regarding false educational data for Aleksander Kwaśniewski. While the court acknowledged these procedural errors, it ruled they could not influence the final election outcome. The decision emphasized that legal presumptions of causality between election law breaches and results require explicit statutory authorization, which the election law lacked.
