Abstract

The subject of the article concerns securing elections against various kinds of manipulations and other dangers regarding determination of result of the ballot. The starting point is the principle of free and fair elections, which today serves as a  standard regulated by international and domestic law. This principle emphasizes the need for introducing tools of protection which would protect democratic election (and as a result voters) from possible abuses which might lead to deformation of the will of the sovereign, and in consequence to shaping of elected authorities is different way as expected by voters. The principle of free and fair elections is a theoretical background for establishing practical solutions, examples of which are shown in the article. Along this background Polish solutions as well as suggested solutions are presented. The author expresses the need to legally establish the principle of free and fair elections as one of principles of electoral law recognized by law.
