The site has several articles about secure voting protocols and cryptographically complex electoral schemes. The protocol considered in the article is quite simple and effective. Details below:
Briefly:')
The voter receives a secured receipt with a serial number from the apparatus.
In the booth, in the field of the bulletin and on his ticket he writes a fictional 16-digit key.
After publishing the results, you can check your voice, while remaining anonymous.
More about the number of voters and the key receipt
Number of voters:a) The voter enters the name and passport data into the apparatus. After checking the ownership of the site receives a secure ticket with a sequence number.
b) The sequence number on the screen of the device is visible to observers, and is broadcast on the camera to the Internet.
c) The device saves a number / photo pair to a hard disk, for subsequent checking for duplication of faces by observers.
Key slip and vote:a) The bulletin will have a field for a 16-digit key, and an example of valid characters (as in the EGE).
b) A voter writes a 16-digit key in the form and on his receipt.
c) It is checked by observers that the keys on the receipt and on the ballot are equal.
Findings:
The voting protocol increases the efficiency of elections for several reasons:
- public value of the number actually coming to the site
- opportunity to check voice while remaining anonymous
- opportunity to report a violation.
The protocol does not solve the problem of selling voice, and protection against pressure, with the requirement to show a ticket. But even with this fact, at low material costs on the part of the state, it is possible to ensure transparent elections.
Waiting for questions and criticism in the comments.
