Summary:The paper focuses on the effects of the present election systems on Polish cities. The first problem, which is a analysed concerns the implementation of one-way electoral districts and all the consequences brought by it. Secondly, the results of the introduction of the so-called presidential system (a strong position of a mayor and a weak position of a council) have been discussed. Such a situation applies to relations between representative authorities, when an executive body does not have the majority support in a legislative body. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of the planned limitation of the term of office of a mayor have been analysed.
