The research conducted by author reveals that anti-systemic electorate is less interested in politics and more likely to be influenced by electoral TV spots. The study also confirms the relation between emotional attitudes to political actors and political preferences. According to the results of experiment anti-systemic voters expressed more positive feelings towards candidates from out of the political mainstream, and the other way round, the pro-systemic electorate rather liked the candidates presented by parliamentary parties. Key words:political  advertising,  electoral  TV  ads,  emotional  attitude,  feelings  thermometer, 2015 presidential election in Poland, anti-systemic voters ER -
