WARSAW, Sept. 26 (Xinhuanet) -- A preliminary result of Poland's parliamentary election showed that two rightist opposition parties were leading in the votes, the Polish National Electoral Committee said on Monday.

    According to a preliminary turnout of the votes in 90 percent of the polling stations throughout the country, the rightist Law and Justice Party(PiS) won 26.84 percent of votes and its ally Civic Platform (PO) won 24.23 percent, while the center-left Union Self-Defense got 11.66 percent and the ruling Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) 11.38 percent, the electoral committee said.

    Reports said the PiS and the PO were discussing about forming ajoint government.

    According to the preliminary result, the PiS would have 152 seats and the PO would have 133 seats in the House of Representatives, Poland's lower house.

    The electoral committee said earlier that the turnout of 40.4 percent in the ballots was the lowest for an election for more than 10 years in the country.

    The official result of the election will be announced on Tuesday. Enditem
