The study by pollster CBOS found backing for the opposition Civic Platform (PO) party, which governed Poland from 2007 to 2015, was at 22 percent, down 2 percentage points on December.
Support for PiS also fell 2 percentage points from last month, according to the poll.
The anti-establishment Kukiz’15 group was on 7 percent, according to the study.
The rural-based Polish People’s Party (PSL), on 6 percent, would also make it into parliament.
The poll found no other parties would clear the 5 percent support threshold needed to enter the Sejm, the lower house.
