The method employs interrelated cryptographic processes and protocols to
provide reliability to vote casting, ballots recount, and verification of
vote or poll results. These cryptographic processes and protocols jointly
constitute a cryptographic voting scheme capable of meeting the specific
reliability requirements of an electronic voting where voters remotely
cast their votes. These reliability requirements include voter
authentication and privacy; accurate results, the impossibility of
coercion and sale of votes, verifying the final results and, if
necessary, the secrecy of intermediate results before completing the vote
or poll. The cryptographic voting method minimizes the confidence level
to be placed on any of the electronic voting individual party and
participants.
