    The subject of this paper is the analysis of what influence has the seniority in the parliament on gaining support, expressed in percentage, in direct elections for these positions: commune head and mayors. Ever since 2002 and up to 2014, among all people attempting to be elected as commune heads and mayors (<i>N</i> = 33 680) were 327 people who previously (prior to 2001) sat in the Polish Parliament. The analysis results, show that experienced parliamentarians loose support in smaller communities and in large towns and cities parliamentary experience is not a significant variable to enhance odds of election to executive positions.
