Internet Voting - Voting methods in Estonia - Estonian National Electoral Committee

I-voting means in this context voting via Internet, not voting by using a special voting device. In 2012 a separate Electronic Voting Committee was established who is now responsible for conducting Internet voting while the National Election Committee retains a supervisory role. Internet voting was first introduced in the local elections of 2005, when more than 9 thousand voters cast their ballot via the Internet (this corresponded to about 2 per cent of all participating voters).

Helmes, kes antud tarkvara teinud on tuli täna välja huvitava patuoinaga – jamades olevat süüdi avatud lähtekoodiga andmebaasimootor PostgreSQL, nende poolt tehtud tarkvara töötas perfektselt ja adekvaatset jõudlustesti ei tehtud kuna see olla võimatu. Esiteks tundub siin äärmiselt kohatu PostgreSQLi süüdistamine, selle peal käib maailmas väga palju süsteeme, mille andmemahud ja koormused on võrratult suuremad sellest, mida see valimissüsteem oleks pidanud kannatama (no kasvõi näiteks Skypei kasutajate baas on PostgreSQLi peal).

Internet Voting - Voting methods in Estonia - Estonian National Electoral Committee. Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the Estonian Riigikogu (Parliament) E-Estonia. Internet voting, or ‘i-voting’, is a system that allows voters to cast their ballots from any internet-connected computer, anywhere in the world.

e-Estonia

Unrelated to the electronic voting systems used elsewhere, which involve costly and problematic machinery, the Estonian solution is simple, elegant and secure. During a designated pre-voting period, the voter logs onto the system using a ID card or Mobile ID, and casts a ballot. The voter’s identity is removed from the ballot before it reaches the National Electoral Commission for counting, thereby ensuring anonymity. With any method of remote voting, including traditional mail-in ballots, the possibility of votes being forced or bought is a concern. Estonia’s solution was to allow voters to log on and vote as many times as they want during the pre-voting period.
