The politician does not want to be just a subject exposed to the political arena any longer, who is becoming well-known and recognizable thanks to political advertising. The politician is getting more active in the field of communication processes aimed at creating a new image of the politician, whom the voters know not just from the traditional media but also from their direct contact with the environment and passing his or her views on many subjects e.g. politics, social issues or economy. At the same time, political marketing processes are gradually replaced by political public relations processes, and the one-way direction of the message, which is characteristic of marketing communication, seems to be systematically replaced by the two-way communication, which is typical for the public relations processes. Progressing development of the social media, such as Internet blogs, Facebook, Twitter, as well as the development of political public relations, influence the changes in both: perceiving the role of the traditional media in the election processes and political communication and in the co-relation between the traditional media and the social media. Social media are more likely to be regarded as being not only complementary to the traditional media, or the brand-new communication tool, but even being an alternative to the traditional media.

When not considering the campaign of Barack Obama, the best example of using social media in parliamentary election campaign was the campaign presented by the SaS (Freedom and Solidarity) political party. It has significantly accelerated the setting of social media as tools of the political marketing in the environment of the Slovak political scene. Since the parliamentary elections in June 2010 a sharp increase of the politicians´ interests in social media, especially in Facebook and YouTube, can be seen. This study explores the potential of social media and identifies key factors of a successful communication. The core of the study is a detailed analysis of the activities of candidates for mayors in municipal elections in 2010. It points out that the main problems of using social media are the ignorance of the social media specifics and application of traditional practices and attitudes that do not work in social media.
