Elections: online e-Voting

オンライン電子電子投票は民主主義の進化のための次の大きな一歩です

Online Electronic e-Voting is the next great step for the evolution of democracy.

Traditional elections involve several difficulties, both for the voters and for the producers of such events.

Having to go to polling places, facing long distances, heavy traffic, queues, bad weather, extreme temperatures, turbulence on the streets, etc. are factors that increase the non-participation of the electorate and explain the reasons for low turnout.

Having to obtain, prepare polling stations, provide pens, forms, install ballots boxes with or without offline machines, maintain, hire and train staff, assure security for voters, staff, votes and machines are factors that raise expenditure of production and demand time for organizers.

It is also important to mention the problems and risks of conducting postal vote applications and manual counting.

With online Electronic Voting Software none of the exposed above is necessary.

Apps and web sites can be exclusively ordered accordingly to regions, subjects, social segments, personal concerns, academical titles, age, gender, instruction degree, etc.

The elector may manifest their say on smartphones and tablets, having also the option to vote via Internet, through the address: http://www.perseusoftware.com/urna

Accessing the software requires login and password, but in this demo the keys are renewed each time the system is loaded. In other words, you can try the app as many times as you want.

The voting is carried out by a numeric keypad, because each party receives a number and each of its candidates receives a number associated with the referred party.

You can choose an option, vote for candidate, party or abstain from voting.

The system allows up to 100 parties and, depending on the number of digits, it can reach up to 999 candidates, as in this demo, or even more.

Examples:

1) Referendum with three options: Yes, No and Abstention.

2) Numbers with 2 digits: a candidate per party.

3) Numbers with 3 digits: up to 9 candidates per party.

4) Numbers with 4 digits: up to 99 candidates per party.

5) Numbers with 5 digits: up to 999 candidates per party, and so on.

This demo presents 36 political personages of history, distributed by 9 fictional parties, in 5 ballots, including one referendum about the independency of a country.

The list of ballots, options, candidates and parties is located in the introduction of the app.

It is possible to correct the vote without having a limited number of attempts, as long as one does not press the button to Confirm.

In the attached movie, the voting steps were carried out slowly. Even so this whole process only took less than three minutes to complete the five ballots, in a situation in which the voter knows beforehand the numbers of its candidates.

After trying the app, you can verify the progression of the current election, including your votes, via the link displayed at the end of the demo or through the address

In an official election, with Perseu Software Electronic Voting Software, each voter has the right of one vote, but votes only once. In addition, his/her choice is secret, thus, it is not possible to know it and who is the author.

In case of contracts and orders to develop exclusive apps and web sites, our invoice will compute each accomplished vote. In this presentation, for example, it would be charged five votes.

Depending on the estimated volume, each vote can cost from the minimum of the equivalent of one British pence (GBP 0.01) per vote.
