AI generated

The Supreme Court of Poland issued an opinion finding procedural violations in four districts of the Ełk constituency regarding the preparation of voting protocols. While the court confirmed that the district 14 commission improperly altered voting data and card counts, it ruled that these errors did not affect the overall referendum outcome. Consequently, the protest was partially upheld as the court acknowledged the procedural flaws but denied the request to annul the referendum results.
