Test Internet Voting
The experiment, in which a new method of voting will be tested (via the Internet), will take place soon in one of the districts of the city of Novomoskovsk, Tula Region.
The test hi-tech will of the people will be held in two stages. The first is a social survey, which, in theory, should identify respondents who are already ready to use the Internet for voting. At the second stage (after the traditional voting), everyone who wants to do this over the Network will be given a CD with software that opens a one-time access to the CEC server. After starting the program and sending data to the server, it closes. The second time it can not run.
According to the president of the Russian cryptographic association “Ruskripto” Alexey Volchkov, that today people are ready for such innovations. Volchkov noted that the technology of electronic voting was developed in the late 80s, but then the hardware component "lagged behind". By the year 2000, "iron" has already allowed to accept and process votes. But both technically and "morally" the society more or less matured to the "electronic will" only today.

Conducting an experimental vote, the CEC sets several goals at once. First, it is an assessment of the possibility of reducing the cost of voting in hard-to-reach areas of the country and for citizens of the Russian Federation living abroad. And, secondly, the security check of the entire system.
