Krakow mayoral candidate Gibała rules out party-mandated deputy, criticizes PiS and KO

Łukasz Gibała, candidate for president of Krakow, stated in an interview that he will not appoint a vice president with a party mandate, signaling a break from traditional political deal-making. He also claimed PiS and Koalicja Obywatelska are not much different, a notable rhetorical shift for a candidate positioning himself as an independent. The statement is a campaign pledge with uncertain electoral impact.
