Election protest dismissed; early polling data release not a crime under Polish Electoral Code.

The Supreme Court dismissed Janusz N.'s election protest against the validity of Polish parliamentary and senatorial elections. The petitioner argued that the Electoral Commission violated the election silence by announcing its end before voting concluded in foreign constituencies, allowing media to publish pre-election polling results. The Court ruled that such announcements do not constitute a crime against elections under Article 78 of the Electoral Code because the relevant provisions govern campaign silence, not the actual voting process or result determination.
