M. Kirschbraun, leader of the Orthodox Agudath Israel, which was defeated in the recent parliament and senate elections, will nevertheless be given a seat in parliament.

It was stated today it is very likely that the Agudah leader, who was placed at the end of the pro-government party list, will be given a mandate, as several of the pro-government candidates were elected in more than one district. By the procedure in Polish elections, such candidates, in resigning, transfer their mandate to the candidates listed after them.
