Gerrymandering involves playing and redrawing the map to fit your electorate. PiS was accused of doing this in 2018 when attempts were made to do a large scale restructuring of the entire Warsaw region and the peripheries (where the PiS voters are in larger numbers) but the investigation wasn’t followed through. What’s more PiS has pushed through voting to happen mostly on Sundays when priests can literally tell people at scale to vote and who to vote for. It isn’t much of a secret that rural communities and towns apply pressures on citizens to vote for the correct choice. This is part of the Pegasus argument - that PiS uses many dirty tricks which take them beyond standard politics 101
