Poland’s center-right Civic Platform (PO), chose party veteran Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska as its contender to unseat nationalist ally Andrzej Duda in a presidential election next year, Reuters reports.
A former parliament speaker, Malgorzata Kidawa-Blonska, 62, and known for building consensus, is trailing Duda, 47, in opinion polls by a double-digit margin, but her party hopes she will be able to mobilize undecided voters at a time of deepening political polarization in Poland.
“It is not easy to be in the center in populist times,” said Grzegorz Schetyna, the leader of Civic Platform, ahead of the party vote.
