Abstract

The article describes Polish, Czech and Lithuanian regulations on secret ballot, with a particular emphasis on the functionality and technical aspects of its execution. The two main methods of voting subjected to research are voting at polling station and postal voting, with some references to other alternative voting methods (proxy voting, mobile polling station, mobile ballot box) as well. Statutory provisions are at some point confronted with the views of legal doctrine and international regulations on the matter. Appearing across the whole work are considerations on the legal status of the secret ballot rule for individuals, whether it is an obligation or a right. The part devoted to Polish law also contains a commentary on changes to Polish Electoral Code in force from years 2016–2018.
