The Supreme Court of Poland partially upheld Elżbieta G.'s protest against the presidential election, validating the false claim about candidate Aleksandra Kwaśniewski's education while rejecting the voting conditions argument. The court found that although the candidate provided incorrect educational data, this irregularity did not influence the election outcome. Consequently, the protest was accepted regarding the misinformation but dismissed concerning the voting environment and the overall result.

Art. 41 ust. 1 ustawy o wyborze Prezydenta; Art. 72 ust. 1 ustawy o wyborze Prezydenta: A violation of election regulations is only grounds for contesting results if it could have influenced the outcome, which was not established here as voters considered multiple factors beyond the candidate's education.
