Poland's ruling Law and Justice party won surprisingly strong backing in the European Parliament elections, with a majority announced Monday.
Candidates of the far-right party, known as PiS, received 46.01 percent of the vote, compared with 37.87 percent for the five-party opposition European Coalition of parties and 6.02 for the left-wing Wiosna, or Springtime, party. PiS won 27 seats in the country's European Parliament delegation, compared to 22 for the European Coalition and three for Wiosna. The results were better for PiS than those announced from exit polls.
