WARSAW, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- Two separate opinion polls, published before the election weekend, have showed that Poland's ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) is way ahead of the opposition.

A poll conducted by Social Changes for portal wpolityce.pl, published on Friday, showed that as many as 47.3 percent of voters intend to vote for PiS during Sunday's general elections.

According to the same poll, 24.4 percent of voters support the Civic Coalition, the biggest opposition group, while the left-wing alliance Lewica is preferred by 16.2 percent of voters.

According to this poll, far-right Confederation would make it to the parliament with 6 percent of votes, and so would an alliance between PSL and Kukiz'15, with 6.1 percent of votes.

The other poll conducted by Kantar, commissioned by private TV station TVN and published on Thursday, put PiS at 40 percent, the Civic Coalition at 26 percent and Lewica at 12 percent, with both Confederation and PSL and Kukiz'15 getting 7 percent of votes.

On Saturday, Poland enters a "quiet" pre-election period lasting 24 hours before the general elections on Sunday, during which campaigning is forbidden and no new polling numbers are announced.
