June 2 (Reuters) - Polish equities slipped on Monday after nationalist opposition candidate Karol Nawrocki won the second round of the country's presidential election.

According to the data from the electoral commission, Nawrocki secured the presidency with 50.89% of the vote in the second round held on June 1, defeating Rafal Trzaskowski, the liberal Warsaw mayor and an ally of the government led by Donald Tusk, who garnered 49.11%.

Poland's blue-chip index WIG20 .WIG20 was down around 3.39% at 7:01 GMT.
