Artykuł jest poświęcony mało znanemu udziałowi wojska w kampanii wyborczej i wyborach do Sejmu PRL w 1957 r. i odnosi się przede wszystkim do jednostek WP pozostających pod zwierzchnictwem MON, ale także formacji podlegających MSW, czyli WOP oraz KBW. Żołnierze byli zarówno odbiorcami treści promujących wybory i uczestnikami głosowania, stanowiąc jednocześnie ważny czynnik w działaniach agitacyjnych realizowanych we współpracy z terenowym aparatem PZPR. Odrębną kwestią była natomiast rola wojska we wspieraniu organów porządkowych na czele z MO w zapewnieniu spokoju w trakcie kampanii wyborczej oraz podczas samego głosowania. The article deals with a little known participation of the army in the electoral campaign and the election to the Polish Sejm in 1957; it relates mainly to the units of the Polish Army under the command of the Ministry of National Defence, but also to the formations subordinates to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, that is the Frontier Defence Army and the Internal Security Corps. Soldiers were both the target audience of the propaganda content and voted in the elections, being at the same time an important factor in rallying actions conducted in cooperation with the local apparatus of the Polish United Workers’ Party. Another question was, however, the part played by the army in supporting the law enforcement services, with the Citizens Militia (the Police) at the head, responsible for ensuring peace and security during the electoral campaign and the election itself.
