The surveys conducted in the autumn of 2013 show that most of those surveyed pay no attention to election advertisements aired on the radio. The greatest percentage of persons not interested in radio election advertisements are followers of the Left Democratic Alliance (Sojusz Lewicy Demokratycznej, SLD) – 74.4%. An equally large percentage of people who are not interested in radio election advertising was reported among those polled who declared they would not vote if the election for the Sejm was held next Sunday - 74%. Followers of the Your Movement [Twój Ruch] coalition and supporters of other parties than those named above also pay little attention to radio election advertising – in both categories this percentage is 68.4% each. Out of the Civic Platform [Platforma Obywatelska, PO] supporters as many as 67.3 % of those surveyed are not interested in radio election advertisements, while among the Law and Justice [Prawo i Sprawiedliwość, PiS] followers the percentage of those not interested in election advertisements on the radio is 65.8%. The lowest percentage (although also exceeding 60%) of people not paying attention to radio election advertisements was reported among supporters of the Polish People’s Party [Polskie Stronnictwo Ludowe, PSL] – 64%. Taking into account the results of surveys concerning ideological views, the highest percentage of persons not interested in radio election advertisements are those surveyed who define their views as left-wing – 76.7%. A slightly smaller percentage of persons not interested in radio election advertisements was reported among those surveyed who defined their views as centrist – 71.6%, while the percentage of those surveyed defining their views as right-wing and not interested in this type of advertising was 65.8%. Out of those who find it difficult to define their views the percentage of people not interested in radio election advertisements is 67.3%. The survey results also show that election advertisements aired on the radio do not have any effect on the voting decisions of the majority of those surveyed. This form of political communication has the smallest influence on the Democratic Left Alliance supporters – as many as 80 % of those polled and declaring themselves as followers of this party believe that radio election advertising has no effect on their voting decisions. The percentage of persons who believe that election advertisements on the radio do not influence their voting decisions is also high in the case of the other categories of those surveyed. In the case of the supporters of other parties than those mentioned, this percentage is 79.8%; for those who would not vote if the election was held on the nearest Sunday – 78,7%, while for the PO, PSL, PiS and Your Movement supporters: 77.8%, 72.1%, 71.4% and 73.6% respectively. In the case of the survey results regarding ideological views, the highest percentage of those surveyed who believe that radio election advertisements do not have any impact on their voting decisions was reported among persons who define their views as centrist – 82.2%, and not much lower among those defining their views as left-wing – 81.7%. The smallest percentage of those who believe that radio election advertisements do not influence their voting decisions was reported among the persons defining their views as right-wing – 74.6% and among those who find it difficult to define their views – 72.2%.

It appears that during an election campaign no one who treats his electoral contest seriously should give up any instrument of communicating with their electorate, even one as apparently ineffective as radio advertising. Bearing in mind the flaws of radio election advertising that arise mainly from the medium which the radio is, i.e. the necessity of receiving the message only through the sense of hearing, the habit of listening to the radio while doing other activities, and difficulties in discerning the content important to the sponsors of a particular advertisement, as well as the high fragmentation of the market and the audience of widely dispersed listeners, the advantages of this tool should also be remembered. Because radio can be listened to practically everywhere, radio advertising has wider chance to be “received” by the listener. It seems that to guarantee the efficacy of advertising based only on sound message one has to remember David Ogilvy’s principles and to meet the requirements presented by McLeish: formulate the thesis of an advertisement, write the right text, choose the appropriate voice and way of speaking, select right music and special effects, and, with some reservation here, see to it that there is some humour in the advertisement. The risk associated with expenses incurred for this communication tool can be further diminished if we decide to air radio election advertisements only as part of free election broadcasts on the programmes of Polish Radio and its regional stations. However, we should remember that not all times of election advertising broadcasts are optimal for their ordering parties. Regardless of the broadcasting time and whether we choose paid advertising or take the opportunity of having free broadcasts as part of election programmes on the public radio, the fundamental aspect of effective radio election advertising is its interesting form and content.

Wydaje się, że w okresie kampanii wyborczej nikt, kto poważnie traktuje swoją walkę wyborczą, nie powinien rezygnować z jakiegokolwiek narzędzia komunikowania się z wyborcami, nawet tak, wydawałoby się nieskutecznego, jakim jest reklama radiowa. Pamiętając o wadach radiowej reklamy wyborczej, wynikających głównie z nośnika, jakim jest radio, a więc o konieczności odbioru treści jedynie przy użyciu zmysłu słuchu, zwyczaju słuchania radia przy okazji wykonywania innych czynności, a także trudnościach w wychwyceniu treści na których zależy sponsorom reklamy i wysokiej fragmentacji rynku oraz rozproszeniu odbiorców, należy pamiętać o zaletach tego narzędzia. W związku z tym, że radia możemy słuchać praktyczne wszędzie, również i radiowa reklama wyborcza ma przez to większe szanse być „odebraną” przez słuchacza. Wydaje się, że gwarancją skuteczności reklamy opartej jedynie na dźwięku jest pamiętanie o przykazaniach Oglivy i spełnienie wszystkich wymogów przedstawionych przez McLeisha, a więc sformułowanie tezy reklamy, prawidłowe napisanie tekstu, wybór odpowiedniego głosu i sposobu mówienia, dobór odpowiedniej muzyki i efektów specjalnych, a także, tu z pewnym zastrzeżeniem, zadbanie o humor w reklamie. Ryzyko związane z wydatkami poniesionymi na to narzędzie komunikowania możemy dodatkowo zmniejszyć decydując się na emisję radiowych reklam wyborczych jedynie w ramach nieodpłatnych audycji wyborczych w programach Polskiego Radia i jego regionalnych rozgłośniach, pamiętając jednak, że nie wszystkie pory emisji reklam wyborczych są optymalne dla ich nadawców. Bez względu jednak na porę emisji i na fakt, czy zdecydujemy się na płatną reklamę, czy skorzystamy z możliwości nieodpłatnych emisji w ramach audycji wyborczych w radiu publicznym, podstawą skutecznej radiowej reklamy wyborczej jest jej ciekawa forma i treść.
