Abstract
A number-theoretic based algorithm provides for secure electronic voting. A voter may cast a votes among n centers in a manner which prevents fraud and authenticates the votes. Preprocessing allows for nearly all of the communication and computation to be performed before any voting takes place. Each center can verify that each vote has been properly counted. The algorithm is based on families of homomorphic encryptions which have a partial compatibility property. The invention can be realized by current-generation PCs with access to an electronic bulletin board.
