How divided government challenges strong mayors: the case of Poland
In ‘strong mayor’ local government systems, the institutional rules often allow for the formation of divided government. When the local government is divided, i.e. mayor is not supported by the majority in the council, the dominance of the mayor in horizontal power relations may be undermined. This paper studies local budgetary resolutions and annual discharge resolutions in Poland, where the electoral system affects the formation of divided government. The analyses presents that: the budget is adopted later and the discharge resolution is more often not adopted in the first vote in municipalities with divided government than in those with unified.
