Could the election deposit become an electoral qualification? Remarks on the example of the election of head of state

Summary/Abstract: An election deposit, understood as an obligation to pay a sum of money necessary to register a candidate in the elections, is not usually treated as an electoral qualification. The deposit is levied as a hedge against “frivolous” candidates in the election process, who lack adequate public support. Equally often, as in the case of parliamentary elections, it is used in the presidential election. This way one guarantees political importance of a particular application. These deposits vary in rate, dependent (in most cases) on the type of mandate. From the smallest – in local elections, through the parliamentary elections (medium) to usually the highest rates in the presidential election.
