On 21 September 1990, the Parliament decided to hold early presidential elections and enacted the Presidential Election Law, which changed the practice of indirect election of the president by the National Assembly (House of Representatives and Senate) and introduced direct election of the president by the whole people.

On 25 November 1990, presidential elections were held
Lech Walesa
He was elected president in the second round with 74.7% of the vote. After Walesa became president, he tried to expand the power of the president, and in his five years in office, he broke down two parliaments, overthrew several prime ministers through the "upper class war", vetoed the decrees passed by the parliament 22 times, and repeatedly contended with the left coalition government for power, so he was defeated in the presidential election in November 1995.
Successor president
Kwasniewski
He won the presidential election in October 2000, becoming the first president in Polish history to be re-elected.
In the 2005 presidential election, Lech Kaczynski won. The 2010 presidential election would normally have been held in October 2010, but since President Lech Kaczynski was killed in a plane crash on April 10, 2010, Article 131 of the Polish Constitution, adopted in 1997, stipulates that in the event of a president's absence (death, resignation, impeachment, etc.), The Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies (Lower house) temporarily assumes the duties of President of the Republic until a new President is elected. If the Speaker of the House of Representatives is also unable to perform his duties, the Speaker of the Senate (Upper house) acts in his place. The acting president must announce the date of the presidential election within 14 days, and the election must be held within 60 days from the date of the announcement. Poland's presidential election, originally scheduled for October 2010, was brought forward.
On April 10, 2010, Polish President Lech Kaczynski was killed while landing in Russia on his way to a ceremony marking the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre. The speaker of the lower house, Bronislaw Komorowski, "automatically" becomes acting president. Komorowski announced later in the day that he would temporarily assume his duties as president.
