STORYLINE:
Polish Civic Platform party leader, Donald Tusk, cast his vote on Sunday in elections that will chart the way forward for the European Union's fifth most populous country and its sixth biggest economy.

A Centrist coalition dominated by the Civic Platform party led by Tusk, 66, a former Polish prime minister and former EU president, is the main opposition party.

It vows to restore stronger ties with the EU and heal rifts it accuses the governing party of creating in Polish society.

The outcome of Sunday's vote will determine whether the right-wing Law and Justice party will win an unprecedented third consecutive term in power or if the combined opposition can win enough support to oust the ruling party that has led Poland for eight years.

A referendum on migration, the retirement age and other issues is being held simultaneously, which the opposition says is an effort to mobilise the ruling party's electorate.
