Do you think Poland will vote yes, to join the Union?
Do you support it?

Only 20% people voted today (saturday)

On http://www.standaard.be they say only 17,61%

But does that mean it won't be accepted ?
Now the parliament has to decide, isn't it ?

many people did not go because they fear fraud during the nighttime

they can go vote today

Ah, they can still vote ?
I thought it was already over...

Little strange, because they say about 75% of Poland is in favor of joining the EU

I heard on TV that they don't like the poll because they are going to join anyway. It is possible that less than 50% vote. So the whole poll wouldn't be valid.
The Poles expect their government, which they think is corrupt, to join anyway - even without legitimation. Because they expect things to develop this way they don't vote at all, they rather enjoy the beautiful weather.
This will get interesting. I'll follow this in today's news.

Well, it's 56% participation and (estimated) 81% pros, only 19% cons. This will be a reasonable legitimation.
