Warsaw, May 19 (IANS/EFE) Centre-right Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski is favoured to prevail in the second round of the presidential election scheduled for Sunday, according to the latest survey released on Tuesday.

Conducted by the Millward Brown institute, the opinion poll indicated that Komorowski would get 47 percent of the vote against 44 percent for his rival Andrzej Duda, the candidate with most votes in the first round, according to TVN24 network.

As indicated by the survey, around 9 percent of the citizens are undecided about their candidate, making them a target for electoral campaigns to try to win their support.

Millward Brown's previous survey underlined Duda's progress against Komorowski, with 44 percent against 40 percent; however, analysts noted that after the last televised debates, the incumbent head of state has managed to garner more support.

In the first round of the presidential election on May 10, projections were wrong in predicting an easy win for Komorowski, as Duda surprisingly took 34.76 percent of the votes in the first round, while Komorowski collected 33.77 percent.
