Poland"s acting president, Bronislaw Komorowski...
Komorowski was elevated to the post following the death of President Lech Kaczynski in a plane crash on April 10, and is a leading candidate in the early presidential elections scheduled for June 20.
The opinion poll, carried out on April 8-19, put Komorowski"s confidence rating at 65%, an eight-point increase over the March poll and a recent record for a politician in Poland, the Center for Public Opinion Research (CBOS) said.
The acting president is followed in the ratings by two colleagues from the center-right Civic Platform party, Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski. The pair have traditionally had good levels of credibility, and also received bumps compared to the March poll, with 57% of respondents expressing confidence in Tusk and 54% in Sikorski.
Other major candidates in the upcoming presidential elections are Deputy Prime Minister Waldemar Pawlak, with a confidence rating of 45%, and the late president"s twin brother Jaroslaw
