Researchers Flag e-Voting Security Flaws

A group of election security experts said they have serious problems with the accuracy, integrity and privacy with Australia s electronic voting systems. The team of four cybersecurity professionals concluded that the ACT e-voting system errors did not impact any election outcomes, but could potentially sway future vote counts if left uncorrected. The researchers also recommended the use of paper ballots and the suspension of internet voting. They are asking for more transparency from the government into the system’s current source code. They also found that the system collects the time and place registered voters cast their ballots.
