Which political position did Tusk unsuccessfully run for in 2005?

  • Prime Minister

  • EU Commissioner

  • Mayor of Warsaw

  • President of Poland

Answer

The 2005 presidential election in Poland saw Donald Tusk make an unsuccessful bid for the presidency. Tusk, who had previously served as the Prime Minister of Poland, faced strong competition from incumbent president Aleksander Kwaśniewski, who ultimately secured a second term. Despite Tusk's efforts and his establishment of the liberal-conservative Civic Platform party, he fell short in securing enough votes to defeat Kwaśniewski.
