Abstract: Electronic ballot box of the type used in elections that not only enables the voting slips to be scanned when they are deposited in the box, despite the fact of their being in an envelope in order to assure voting secrecy, using emission of a light for this purpose, but also permits the totalling of the votes for each of the candidatures and the setting of the electoral process parameters (voters, geographical bounds, candidatures, etc.) and those of the machine itself. It is also provided with a PCMCIA card, where the electoral database is stored. The machine can work either in voting mode or in management mode, so that absolute control is available over the operation of the equipment.
