Independent Łukasz Gibała won Kraków’s mayoral runoff on Sunday, defeating a candidate backed by Prime Minister Donald Tusk and handing Poland’s governing Civic Coalition a setback in the country’s second-largest city. Gibała secured 61% of the vote against 39% for Senator Monika Piątkowska, according to an exit poll published just after polling stations closed at 9 p.m. local time. Turnout was 44.7%; complete results are expected overnight into Monday. The result follows the removal of Mayor Aleksander Miszalski, backed by Civic Coalition, in a May referendum. “The people of Kraków have just regained their city! Now let’s put aside our differences and show that we can work together,” Gibała said, appearing to acknowledge that he will have to cooperate with Civic Coalition and its national coalition partner, the Left party, which together control 23 of the city council’s 43 seats. This was Gibała’s fourth shot at the mayoralty. A local councilor and former national lawmaker, Gibała narrowly lost to Miszalski in 2024 in his previous attempt. This time around, he campaigned on breaking with the political establishment, riding a wave of public discontent over Kraków’s huge debt and attempts to establish a low-emissions zone. Gibała won the Sept. 27 first round with 36.4% ahead of Piątkowska on 29.9%. The candidate of the main opposition Law and Justice party finished third with 17.5%. Piątkowska, backed by Civic Coalition, tried to distance herself from Miszalski while arguing that close ties with the national government would benefit Kraków, pop. 800,000. Nationally, Civic Coalition remains ahead in opinion polls, but current voting intentions suggest that Tusk’s coalition will fall short of a majority in scheduled fall parliamentary elections. Two October surveys listed by polling aggregator ewybory.eu put Civic Coalition at 31.9%, Law and Order at 17.7%, the far-right Confederation at 14% and another far-right grouping, the Confederation of the Polish Crown, at 8.3%. Of Civic Coalition’s three government allies, only the Left, at 7%, would exceed the 5% threshold for parliamentary representation, dimming the administration’s prospects of retaining power.

PARIS — Raphaël Glucksmann won France’s center-left primary on Sunday, securing the backing of the Socialist Party and its allies for next year’s presidential election, organizers said. Glucksmann, a member of the European Parliament, won the contest outright with over 66% of votes, beating Socialist Party leader Olivier Faure and three other candidates in the first round. More than 120,000 people voted Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The leader of the small center-left Place Publique party entered the contest as one of the favorites. He now emerges strengthened from the primary, with access to Socialist Party funds and having built a broader base for his candidacy. “This result expresses something strong: that a left that is faithful to its values can unite, govern and win,” the MEP wrote online. “We are here to win the presidential election: Turn the page on Macronism, stop the far right and change our lives,” he added. But Glucksmann, a staunch supporter of Ukraine and a critic of China, now faces a much greater challenge: how to beat the far-left leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon. The head of the France Unbowed party is surging in the polls, with the latest Ifop survey giving him 14% to 17% support, compared to 11% for Glucksmann. In recent weeks, Glucksmann campaigned against forming an alliance with the far-left leader. Three other candidates ran in the primary, including former minister Ségolène Royal and lawmakers Jérôme Guedj and Emmanuel Maurel. Some 140,000 people were registered to vote in the primary — including, 80,000 who paid €15 to take part but weren’t members of any of the parties whose candidates were running — raising uncertainty over the outcome. The online voting platform was also targeted by a cyberattack shortly after opening, organizers said in a statement on Friday, but “was never disrupted” and “the integrity of the recorded votes has not been compromised.”

Burnham made the comments in an interview with The Rest is Politics podcast, released on Sunday.
