Internal party primaries before official elections do not constitute an election campaign under Polish law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the protest regarding internal party primaries held before the official presidential election, ruling they do not trigger election campaign restrictions. The petitioner also argued for candidate discrimination and denied access to the election commission, claims the court rejected as misunderstandings of formal equality and procedural facts. Finally, the court left the bribery charge without further proceedings because the petitioner failed to provide evidence or specify the alleged crime.
