Trzaskowski, 53, has promised to support abortion and LGBTQ rights AFP Poles vote on Sunday in a tight presidential election that will be decisive for the future of the country's centrist government as well as for abortion and LGBTQ rights. Pro-EU Warsaw mayor Rafal Trzaskowski is expected to get 30 percent, ahead of nationalist historian Karol Nawrocki's 25 percent, according to opinion polls. That would put both through to the runoff on June 1 at a particularly fraught moment for Europe as Russia's invasion of Ukraine drags on, far-right populists continue to rise and ties with Washington come under strain.
