Trust, secrecy and accuracy in voting systems
Roberto Casati 1
(2009)

Abstract: If voting systems are to be trusted, they not only need to preserve both secrecy (if requested) and accuracy, but the mechanisms that preserve these features should be transparent, in the sense of being both cognitively understandable and accessible. Electronic voting systems, much as they promise accuracy in counting, violate the transparency requirement.
