- A Survey of Internet Voting - in pdf format (2195kb)
- (This document requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader). US Election Assistance Commission, Testing and Certification Technical Paper #2, September 14, 2011. "This report presents a broad review of the Internet voting systems used in elections from January 2000 through November 2011. The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) conducted this study to collect information to use as guidance in the development of electronic absentee voting guidelines. The knowledge gained from examining the system architectures, the standards for designing and/or testing these systems and how system risk was evaluated and managed provides valuable insight based on actual experience. Several countries began conducting studies and preparing to field voting pilot projects in the late 1990s, including the U.S., the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Sweden. By the mid- to late 1990s, inexpensive personal computing technology and Internet access had become widely available in most developed countries. The ability to connect directly with consumers revolutionized the way commercial services were provided in the private sector. These developments spurred governments to consider how information technology might be used to perform various public functions more effectively and efficiently. Reducing the cost of elections, improving voter turnout, and making voting more accessible for absentee voters and voters with disabilities are among the objectives frequently cited for piloting Internet voting..."
