The article describes one of the essential elements of the electoral process, i.e. the principle of secret voting in the elections to the Sejm of the Polish People’s Republic (in Polish PRL) of the first term. The overt actions of the authorities taken in the legal and political sphere, i.e. regulations, declarations, and election propaganda, were analysed. These actions were then confronted with the electoral practice, i.e. the voting on 26 October 1952, and the accompanying parapolitical abuses, which are the hidden relations between the public sphere of the state (the Polish United Workers’ Party, in Polish PZPR) and the political processes and arrangements occurring outside official politics. The juxtaposition of these two spheres – overt and covert – made it possible to present a real picture of the functioning of the principle of secrecy in the elections to the Sejm of the Polish People’s Republic of the first term.

Zasada tajności głosowania to jeden z podstawowych filarów polskiego systemu wyborczego. Jej charakter nie budzi wielu wątpliwości w literaturze przedmiotu. Wydaje się jednak, że tajność głosowania może być jednym z głównych wyzwań w kontekście planów wdrożenia głosowania w wyborach powszechnych przez Internet. W tym kontekście wielu naukowców nadzieję pokłada w oddawaniu głosu przez blockchain. Jest to technologia zapewniająca wysokie bezpieczeństwo. Na łamach niniejszego artykułu rozważam, czy blockchain - ze względu na swoją charakterystykę - może być zastosowany w Polsce jako technologia umożliwiająca głosowanie przez Internet ze względu na konieczność realizowania zasady tajności głosowania?

The principle of secret voting is one of the basic elements of the Polish electoral system. Its character does not raise many doubts in the literature on the subject. It seems, however, that secrecy of voting may be one of the main challenges in the context of plans to implement Internet voting in universal suffrage. Many scientists place their hope in blockchain. It is a technology that ensures high security. On the basis of this article, I consider whether blockchain – due to its characteristics – can be used in Poland as a technology enabling voting via the Internet. I pay particular attention to the principle of secret voting, which may be difficult to implement with the use of this solution.
