Organizations say they are confused.

Nawrocki declared himself “full of energy and enthusiasm on the way to victory” in a statement to the media, adding that “probably all of Poland saw that Rafał Trzaskowski is a candidate who can’t cope.”Meanwhile, Trzaskowski vowed to fight until the end. “I will try to convince young people and all those who voted differently that it is worth voting for a normal Poland, not a radical Poland,” Trzaskowski told reporters in Karzysko-Kamienna.

The two men’s political fates rest to a large extent with voters who chose other candidates in the first round, and how they will vote can be difficult to predict. Experts say there isn’t an automatic transfer of votes from certain candidates to others; some who don’t get their chosen candidate might not vote at all.Still, Trzaskowski has a lot to worry about.More than 20% of voters opted for candidates on the far right, whose conservative and nationalistic worldviews overlap with Nawrocki’s.

Sławomir Mentzen of the hard-right Confederation party won 14.8% and — in one of the biggest electoral suprises — a far-right extremist, Grzegorz Braun, won over 6%.Both have embraced antisemitic and

language but Braun has taken his stance much further.

During the campaign Braun stormed a hospital with supporters and tried to carry out a citizen’s arrest of a doctor who had carried out a legal late-term abortion on a woman whose fetus was diagnosed with severe condition, putting her health at risk.People were also forced to relocate at two other county schools on Tuesday. Allegany County Public Schools said 12 students stayed overnight at Mountain Ridge High School before being picked up Wednesday morning. County schools were closed Wednesday.

Emergency officials said no one had been reported missing or injured, but residents were urged to stay home anyway because several secondary roads had been washed out.The Potomac River remained within its banks, with only minor flooding reported and conditions generally improving, officials said. Crews were assessing damage after water receded in the Georges Creek area.

By Wednesday afternoon, the sun was shining and many residents had already spent hours scraping, shoveling and hauling massive quantities of mud. Crews used heavy equipment to clear mud from the streets and carted it away by dump truck.They started cleaning out the town’s library and a fire station, where receding floodwaters left behind a thick layer of sludge. From backhoes to mops, people grabbed whatever they could find and pitched in.
