The Supreme Court dismissed Wojciech N.'s protest regarding the validity of the presidential election. The protestor argued that election guidelines restricting voting abroad to those voting in Poland violated the law by denying voting rights to citizens residing abroad who wished to vote there. The court ruled that the guidelines were valid because they prevented double voting and applied only to citizens voting within Poland, thus not affecting the protestor's eligibility.
