Fun Fact: Polish government wants to make elections on the 10th of May. They say to stay at home and avoid crowds, but elections, with crowd in one place touching papers are fine.

option A - they are afraid that they will fuck up so hard with this epidemic and economy that people will not vote for them anymore
option B - they are afraid that the pandemic will spread and if they wait longer there will be no people to vote for them (older).
