Polish centrist and nationalist presidential candidates to face off in 2nd round

WARSAW, May 19 (Reuters) - Centrist Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski and nationalist Karol Nawrocki will compete in a second round of the presidential election in Poland on June 1, near-total voting results from the electoral commission (PKW) showed early on Monday.

The commission published data from 99.7% of voting districts by provinces at 0552 GMT on Monday, but did not give an overall result. The data shows Trzaskowski and Nawrocki being well ahead of other candidates in 13 of 16 provinces.

An Ipsos late exit poll from the first round on Sunday showed Trzaskowski placed first with 31.2% of the vote, ahead of Nawrocki, who had 29.7%.
