  • Publication number: 20050021479
    Abstract: The method employs interrelated cryptographic processes (210) and protocols (202,204,206,208,212,214), specially designed to provide reliability to vote casting, ballots recount, and verification of vote or poll results. These cryptographic processes and protocols jointly constitute a cryptographic voting scheme capable of meeting the specific reliability requirements of an electronic voting where voters remotely cast their votes. More specifically, these reliability requirements include voter authentication and privacy; accurate results, the impossibility of coercion and sale of votes, verifying the final results and, if necessary, the secrecy of intermediate results before completing the vote or poll. The proposed cryptographic voting scheme allows minimizing the confidence level to be placed on any of the electronic voting individual party and participants.
