Three opposition parties that have vowed to restore democratic standards in Poland together won about 54% of the votes in the nation’s parliamentary election, final results show.

The conservative Law and Justice party, which has governed the country for eight turbulent years, won slightly over 35% of the votes, making it the single party with the most votes.
