Support for the party remained unchanged since the previous poll taken in February, pollster Kantar Public said.
Meanwhile, the Civic Platform (PO), the country’s largest opposition grouping, improved its ratings by 2 percentage points and can now count on 22 percent support, according to the poll.
The Kukiz ’15 grouping came third with six percent support, followed by the Nowoczesna (Modern) party on five percent, which is a threshold needed for a party to enter parliament. Backing for both groupings fell by one percentage point since last month.
Kantar Public also found that three parties would not enter parliament. The Democratic Left Alliance has 4 percent support, down by 1 percentage point. Polish People’s Party is on 2 percent, down by 3 percentage points. The leftist Razem (Together) party saw its support slip by 1 percentage point to 1 percent. (aba)
