Summary
Online voting systems have been under consideration in the cryptographic literature since the early 1980’s. From the literature,two main secure methods have emerged, individually verifiable methods and universally verifiable elections. Although both meet privacy requirements, individually verifiable election systems require voters to verify their votes, which is often unlikely.Universally verifiable elections allow any observer to verify the integrity of the election without violating voter privacy.
