- On March 8th, general elections were held within the structures of the Civic Coalition, where eligible members directly elected the leader of the Coalition, regional leaders, district leaders, members of district councils, and delegates - said Dorota Niedziela at a press conference.

- 78% of eligible voters participated in the elections. The number of valid votes cast in total for the coalition's leadership candidate was 16,695 votes. The number of valid votes in favor of electing the candidate was 16,316 votes. The number of valid votes against electing the candidate was 379 votes, which constitutes 97% of the valid votes in favor of the candidate - she continued.

- In light of the above, the commission states that the candidate Donald Tusk obtained the majority of valid 'for' votes required by the statute and has been elected as the leader of the Civic Coalition - she announced.
