WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Opposition leader Donald Tusk is leading a march in Poland’s capital to mobilize supporters and boost his coalition’s chances of unseating the conservative government in an upcoming parliamentary election. His Civic Coalition is a few percentage points behind the governing Law and Justice party in recent surveys. Tusk told supporters at Sunday’s “March of a Million Hearts” that political “change for the better is inevitable” in Poland. City authorities estimated a march crowd of 1 million. Civic Coalition is vowing to mend ties with the European Union that grew strained during the eight years Law and Justice has governed the country. Tusk was president of the European Council after serving as Poland’s prime minister.
