The main idea of the article was to show how the 1952 election, were discussed among the members of the Provincial Committee of the Polish United Workers' Party in Gdansk. It was the second voting after the war, but it took place in a completely different reality. In Poland, already in force the new constitution, the society was pacified, and the authorities had no real enemies, but in spite of all in the preparations were included the whole state apparatus. Control over the conduct of the voting was necessary, because the authorities were afraid of a boycott of the election, which was the only form of show opposition to the situation in the People's Republic of Poland. In the post-election analysis, it was emphasized that not everything went as it should, but the Communists and so won. In that Poland, couldn’t have been a different result.

Artykuł prezentuje przegląd opinii, które zawierają listy przesłane władzom PRL podczas tzw. konsultacji społecznych projektu nowej ordynacji wyborczej do Sejmu w 1985 r. Większość nadawców pisała krytycznie nie tylko o samym projekcie, ale także o systemie wyborczym PRL w ogóle. Zestawiając te opinie ze znanymi z innych publikacji listami z okresu budowy w Polsce systemu komunistycznego, autor stawia tezę, iż przez kolejne dziesięciolecia trwania rządów PPR/PZPR Polacy nawet jeśli brali udział w powszechnych głosowaniach, zdawali sobie sprawę z ich fasadowego charakteru. The article presents a survey of opinions expressed in the letters sent to the authorities of the Polish People’s Republic during the so-called social consultations of the draft of a new electoral law to the Sejm in 1985. A majority of people wrote critically not only about the project itself but also about the whole electoral system of the Polish People’s Republic. After a comparison of these opinions with other letters known from the period of building of a communist system in Poland, the author puts forward a thesis that in the successive decades of the rule of the Polish Workers’ Party/Polish United Workers’ Party, even if they had voted in universal elections, the Polish people were aware of their window-dressing nature.
