Good morning, from Poland, the first two candidates for the presidential election last night - Centre-Central Warsaw Mayor RafałTrzaskowski and radical historians Karol Nawrocki - No time wasted this morning and then hit the campaign again before runoff within two weeks.

The final result was released this morning, giving Trzaskowski a 31.36% lead and Nawrocki a 29.54%.

Since both of them now have to expand their appeal to reach 50%+1 on June 1, there are inevitably some changing priorities for our campaign.

There are a lot of votes to win, but what makes it extremely tricky is that they may come from Very Diversified (or even the opposite) candidate.

Develop an election strategy to cancel the vote SławomirMentzena liberal anti-establishment candidate, he ranks third with a hit of 14.8% and radical rights Grzegorz Braun (6.34%), while also supported by supporters of supporters of left-wing voters Adrian Zandberg (4.86%) and Magdalena Biejat (4.23%) or centrist supporters Szymon Hołownia (4.99%) may prove to be a challenge.

As Dr. Ben Stanley told us last night's Super Sunday blog “Candidates are not LEGOs” When he warned "those who stacked them to the second round result ignored substantial heterogeneity."

I will also bring you some European responses to Romania and Portugal votes and all other critical updates from across Europe.
