“…According to Chung et al [3], the possibility to vote remotely is one of the greatest benefits from e-voting since it potentially raises participation in the voting exercise. Qadah et al [15] supports this assertion claiming that e-voting permits voters to cast their votes at any time from any location and using a variety of electronic devices.…”

The adoption of e-voting in different parts of the world has been generally problematic, with only few exceptions. Past studies also suggest that e-voting is embedded in the socio-politically context informing variations in the adoption patterns and nature of challenges faced during implementation. While few survey-based empirical studies have been carried out to better understand factors affecting successful adoption of e-voting, there is general paucity of ethnographic studies and analysis providing detailed insights to e-voting adoption in specific contexts. This study offers such ethnography through in-depth analysis of e-voting adoption in the 2011 Nigerian General Elections. Using a multilevel Innovation Adoption Framework as a theoretical lens, we analyze the observations made by one of the authors as a participant in the adoption and implementation of the e-voting initiative as well as the post-election reports. Results from analysis revealed core factors for the different levels of e-voting adoption constructs -socio-political context, organizations, innovation and individual. Results also identified factors and challenges that may negatively impact e-voting adoption.

Vote by ballot is the feature in a democratic society and the process of decision-making, tending to achieve the philosophy of democratic politics by having the public who are eligible to vote for competent candidates or leaders. With the rapid development of technologies and network applications, electronization has been actively promoted globally during the social transformation period that the concept of electronic voting is further derived. The major advantages of electronic voting, comparing with traditional voting, lie in the mobility strength of electronic voting, reducing a large amount of election costs and enhancing the convenience for the public. Electronic voting allows voters completing voting on the Internet that not only are climate and location restrictions overcome, but the voter turnout is also increased and the voting time is reduced for the public. With the development in the past three decades, electronic voting presents outstanding performance theoretically and practically. Nevertheless, it is regrettable that electronic voting schemes still cannot be completely open because of lures by money and threats. People to lure by money and threats would confirm the voters following their instructions through various methods that more factors would appear on election results, affecting the quality and fairness of the election. In this study, this project aims to design an electronic voting scheme which could actually defend voters' free will so that lure of money and threats would fail. Furthermore, an electronic voting system based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography is proposed to ensure the efficiency and security, and Ring Signature and Signcryption are applied to reducing the computing costs. Moreover, this project also focuses on applying voting system to mobile devices. As the system efficiency and security are emphasized, voters do not need to participate in the election, but simply complete voting with smart phones, iPads, and computers. The votes would be automatically calculated and verified the results that the ballots are not necessarily printed, the printing of election mails is reduced, and manual handling is canceled. Such a method would effectively reduce voting costs and enhance the economic efficiency.

“…As to cut the link between the voters and the ballots, the theorem of "blind signature" is used in many proposals [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] to solve such a problem. Anonymity and coercion-free issues were often mentioned e-voting systems [10,11] in recent years. In fact, implementing a secure anonymous channel is not a problem on the current Internet.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we propose a practical and secure anonymous Internet voting protocol. This method integrates Internet reality and cryptology. Issues such as the kinds of "certificate authority" and "public proxy server" are integrated in our scheme to solve the Internet identification and anonymity problems. To combine and make up a series of ElGamal blind signature and secret sharing cryptosystem, this protocol can be applied to a secure, practical, and fair voting system.
