Summary/Abstract: Alternative voting methods guarantee more complete implementation of the rule of generality of elections and have an impact on boosting up voter turnout. Nevertheless, in 2018 an amendment to The Electoral Code was introduced concerning relevant provisions. The new regulations have been adversely affected by development of the right to vote and have contributed to its regression. The epidemic situation in 2020 showed how alternative voting methods may be needed.
