Abstract

In this paper, we describe the Open Voting Consortium's voting system and discuss the privacy issues inherent in this system. By extension, many of the privacy issues in this paper also apply to other electronic voting machines, such as DREs(Direct Recording Electronic voting machines). The privacy issues illustrate why careful and thorough design is required to ensure voter privacy and ballot secrecy.
