On the 6th August Andrzej Duda was sworn in as the new president of the Republic of Poland. The public is largely convinced that he will be a better president than Bronis³aw Komorowski (almost a half of interviewees – 48% – is convinced of that). Only about one in five interviewees (22%) think that the assumption of the head of the state office by Andrzej Duda means a change for the worse.

Confidence in Andrzej Duda being a better president than his predecessor is more common mostly among PiS supporters (89% of them) and also among Pawe³ Kukiz’s movement’s potential voters (68%). On the other hand, among likely PO voters the opposite opinion clearly overweighed (58% of them). However, one in eleven supporters of the ruling party (9%) think that the new president gives hopes for improvement in the head of the state office performance. One third of PO supporters (33%) have no opinion on that matter.

More on that issue can be found in the CBOS report in Polish: „Expectations for the Presidency of Andrzej Duda”.
