The IBRiS survey, commissioned by the newspaper, was carried out between October 25 and 26, 2024.

Among 1,069 adult participants, 56.3% believe that the current mayor of Warsaw, Rafał Trzaskowski, has a better chance against the PiS candidate for the presidency than Radosław Sikorski.

Support for Poland's Foreign Minister Sikorski in the IBRiS poll was indicated by 27.8% of respondents, while 18.8% remain undecided on the matter.

On Monday, MP Marek Jakubiak from the conservative party Wolni Republikanie announced his participation in next year’s presidential elections.

The politician previously ran for the same position in the last election, receiving 0.17% of the voter support.
