I have just had a another do-over on the subject of e-voting. It is my view that,
It is not possible to build a single system that offers both a transparency of result and secrecy of the ballot.
Some people argue that our current system fails these tests but this is not so. The UK’s current process involve three systems, one to check that the voter is entitled, one to record the vote, and one that records the intersection between the other two for the purposes of audit. The ballots and their intersections are not indexed. While the systems are designed to be tracked, doing so requires massive privilege and is very expensive. N.B. Expense is an IT security defence.
e-voting: transparency and secrecy
