A day after appearing to come second in the first round of Poland’s presidential election, the incumbent has admitted he needs to listen to the voters.<br /><br /> President Bronislaw Komorowski has even promised a referendum on voting reform after the surprise result forecast. It’s an issue championed by one of his rival candidates.<br /><br /> The incumbent says he will submit a draft amendment to the constitution if he is elected.<br /><br /> “I have to look reality in the eyes,” said Komorowski. <br /><br /> “I have to draw conclusions from the result of yesterday’s voting, and in my opinion – I will say it again, as I said yesterday – I should listen to the voters.”<br /><br /> Early figures after the first round put conservative candidate Andrzej Duda in the lead.<br /><br /> Final results are still not through, but it seems likely Komorowski will face Duda in a second-round run-off vote on May the 24th.<br /><br /> The early results were a surprise to many, with opinion polls before Sunday’s ballot showing the incumbent with a comfortable lead.
