| | List of political parties in Poland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Poland has a multi-party system, with numerous parties in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments. |
 | | The threshold of minimum 5% of votes for parties and 8% of votes for electoral coalitions eliminated a big number of minor parties from winning their seats in later elections. |
 | | Nevertheless, it is worth noting that the general public disapproval of politics and politicians as a whole has resulted in all major parties excluding the very word "party" from their names, replacing it with words less associated with politics, such as "union", "platform", "league" or "alliance". |
