BBC News published this video item, entitled “Donald Tusk nominated as Polish prime minister | BBC News” – below is their description.

The Polish parliament has nominated Donald Tusk to become prime minister after current leader Mateusz Morawiecki lost a key vote in the country’s parliament.

Mr Morawiecki’s populist Law and Justice (PiS) party failed to win a majority in October’s elections.

President Andrzej Duda, a PiS ally, nonetheless nominated Mr Morawiecki to lead the government.

His failure to win a vote of confidence paves the way for Mr Tusk to become PM.

In all, 190 MPs voted for Mr Morawiecki’s government, compared with 266 against. The Sejm, the country’s parliament, then nominated Mr Tusk to lead the country.

In This Story: Vote

Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.

In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
