The Law and Justice (PiS) party's endorsement of Karol Nawrocki as their candidate for the presidential election initially shocked many, even within the party. Nawrocki, lacking charisma and public speaking skills, started the campaign behind rival Rafal Trzaskowski. However, PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski's strategy to present Nawrocki as an independent candidate aimed to counteract the negative association voters had with the party’s past governance. Nawrocki's background in history and previous roles, especially in organizing the Museum of the Second World War, underscore his alignment with PiS's political narrative.
Nawrocki, portrayed by PiS as an independent candidate, faced a rocky campaign start with a stiff demeanor and rhetorical weaknesses, surprising many within the party.
Despite a promising lead for Trzaskowski, Jaroslaw Kaczynski backed Karol Nawrocki, positioning him as a citizens’ candidate to appeal to voters wary of PiS's past.
