e-voting

Electronic voting, or e-voting, consist in using electronic means for casting or counting ballots in elections. For instance, electronic voting machines can be installed at the polling stations, or voters may have the option to cast their ballots online (called internet voting, or i-voting). While e-voting may have the advantages of saving time, reducing costs, and improving accessibility, it also poses some important questions about security of vote secrecy and the possibility of vote verification (especially when performed online).
