WARSAW (Reuters) - Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk is heading for a humiliating loss in his party's stronghold in the capital city on Sunday unless Warsaw's mayor manages to convince enough residents to stay away from a vote to remove her from office.

Tusk, who won an unprecedented second term in 2011, has seen his centre-right party fall behind the conservative opposition in recent months due to rising dissatisfaction with a government that pushed through some unpopular reforms but has also been seen as failing to deliver on many of its promises.
