Summary/Abstract: Feedback or evaluation of public policy respectively, is one of the most important stages of public policy realization. However, it is very important to keep in the mind that elections as the most important part of public policy evaluation are not the only option how to discover actual public preferences of citizens in the democratic societies. There are some alternatives, which we call alternative preferences indicators, namely Public Opinion, Exit and Vote and Logrolling. These alternatives are subject to study within this paper. It is because we guess that the complex knowledge and studying of these alternative preferences indicators, also within political practice of democratic countries, could lead to the significant increase of quality and efficiency of realised public policies, in terms of public welfare achieving.
