Krakow mayoral race: Bocheńczak stumble may dent party image ahead of vote

Krakow voters head to polls in two weeks to elect a new city president after Aleksander Miszalski's recall. The campaign centers on local issues—clean transport zone, public transport, debt, touristification, and city management—while a stumble by candidate Bocheńczak could weaken his party's broader standing. Outcome uncertain; local dynamics may not shift national politics.
