Electronic voting is clearly here to ride out , but it ’s been plagued with charge of fraud and insecurity at nearly every election since it was introduced . But voting system designer David Bismark may have a solution .
His raw organization , which he distinguish in a talk of the town at TEDGlobal 2010 , uses multiple whole tone to ensure security and make meddle next to impossible .
In his system , everyone gets a voting with an cypher barcode on it . On one side of the ballot is the inclination of candidates in a random order , and on the other are the checkboxes . When you vote , you rend it in one-half and keep the arranged listing of candidates and turn in the half with the checkboxes and your barcode . You turn in that one-half and election workers run down it into the organisation .
you may then take your one-half home and verify your votes online . And once the election is accomplished , the votes are decrypted “ in several steps , spread among different organisations , and the unpatterned - text , countable ballot can then be tally . ”
This scheme micturate it impossible for any one mortal or group to tamper with vote , or else requiring all of them to form together , something very improbable . It produce a lot of sense ! Whether or not something that make so much gumption will actually be implemented , well , we ’ll have to hold off and see . [ Bismark.seviaWired.co.uk ]
