Wybrane konstytucyjnoprawne aspekty praw wyborczych obywateli UE niebędących obywatelami polskimi

The study concerns the relations between the Polish Constitution of 1997 and the regulations of EU treaties in the area of granting EU citizens who are not Polish citizens electoral rights on the territory of the Polish state. These rights refer to active and passive electoral law with regard to elections to the European Parliament and to local self-government (commune). Electoral rights are treated as an institution intended only for Polish citizens. Thus there is a situation of incompatibility between the constitutional standard and the electoral rights of all EU citizens. This problem has been considered by the Polish Constitutional Tribunal, but due to its complexity and its systemic nature has not been resolved.
