2005-10-11 |
Warsaw's tough-talking mayor took his message of family values and moral renewal to northeastern Poland on Monday in the fight for the presidency, while his rival sought the support of anti-communist legend Lech Walesa. Both Mayor Lech Kaczynski and pro-market lawmaker Donald Tusk failed to win a majority in the first round of Sunday's presidential vote and will meet in a second round Oct. 23. Tusk won 36 percent of the vote and Kaczynski 33 percent. Ten other candidates shared the rest. |
