Asking the Right Questions About Electronic Voting by National Research Council,Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences,Computer Science and Telecommunications Board,Committee on a Framework for Understanding Electronic Voting Pdf
Many election officials look to electronic voting systems as a means for improving their ability to more effectively conduct and administer elections. At the same time, many information technologists and activists have raised important concerns regarding the security of such systems. Policy makers are caught in the midst of a controversy with both political and technological overtones. The public debate about electronic voting is characterized by a great deal of emotion and rhetoric. Asking the Right Questions About Electronic Voting describes the important questions and issues that election officials, policy makers, and informed citizens should ask about the use of computers and information technology in the electoral processâ€"focusing the debate on technical and policy issues that need resolving. The report finds that while electronic voting systems have improved, federal and state governments have not made the commitment necessary for e-voting to be widely used in future elections. More funding, research, and public education are required if e-voting is to become viable.
The 2002 Help America Vote Act (HAVA) created the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) and, among other things, assigned the Commission responsibility for testing and certifying voting systems. In view of concerns about voting systems and the important role EAC plays in certifying them, the author was asked to determine whether EAC has: (1) defined an effective approach to testing and certifying voting systems; (2) followed its defined approach; and (3) developed an effective mechanism to track problems with certified systems and used the results to improve its approach. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
Since the 2000 nat. elections, concerns have been raised regarding the election process, including voting technologies. Beginning in 2001, there have been a series of reports examining every aspect of the elections process; these were used by Congress in framing the Help America Vote Act, which provided for replacement of older voting equip. with modern electronic voting systems (EVS) & estab. the Election Assist. Comm. to lead the nation¿s election reform efforts. This report details: the contextual role & characteristics of EVS; the range of security & reliability concerns that have been reported; the experiences & mgmt. practices of states & local jurisdictions; & the long-standing & emerging challenges facing all levels of gov¿t. in using EVS.

Introducing Electronic Voting by Peter Wolf,Rushdi Nackerdien,Domenico Tuccinardi Pdf
Electronic voting is often seen as a tool for making the electoral process more efficient and for increasing trust in its management. Properly implemented, e-voting solutions can increase the security of the ballot, speed up the processing of results and make voting easier. However, the challenges are considerable. If not carefully planned and designed, e-voting can undermine the confidence in the whole electoral process. Technology upgrades in elections are always challenging projects that require careful deliberation and planning. Introducing e-voting is probably the most difficult upgrade as this technology touches the core of the entire electoral process—the casting and counting of the votes. E-voting greatly reduces direct human control and influence in this process. This provides an opportunity for solving some old electoral problems, but also introduces a whole range of new concerns. Consequently, e-voting usually triggers more criticism and opposition and is more disputed than any other information technology application in elections. This Policy Paper outlines contextual factors that can influence the success of e-voting solutions and highlights the importance of considering these factors before choosing to introduce new voting technologies.
The use of electronic voting systems has caused controversy in the media and among the general public, and has even come under the scrutiny of the law courts. it has become clear that the uncertainties surrounding the introduction of e-voting are rarely of a technical nature, but primarily raise political and societal concerns. The key issue is to ensure that the principles of free and fair elections are upheld, regardless of the voting method chosen. This handbook is written for governments and organisations considering whether or not to conduct e-voting pilot schemes and trials or to make e-voting a feature of their electoral system. it reviews relevant issues such as building and safeguarding trust in the system, The value of open-source software And The implications of a voter verifiable audit paper trail. Concrete e-voting issues are discussed in the framework of the electoral cycle. This handbook can be used as a stand-alone guide, but governments or organisations would benefit most by consulting it in conjunction with Recommendation Rec(2004)11 of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on legal, operational and technical standards for e-voting
