Let's try to put it in terms that Wozzie can understand:

a) Wozzie said - Wozzie will be elected President of Poland. And then 
Wozzie was elected President of Poland

b) (X ≠ Y) Wozzie said -  Wozzie will be elected President of Poland. 
And then Andrzej Duda was elected President of Poland

b') (X = Y) Wozzie said - Wozzie will be elected President of Poland. 
And then Wozzie was elected President of Poland
