Re: free e-voting software available?!
I am working on the implementation of a system which should fit your requirements based on some work of mine and on "A Protocol for Anonymous and Accurate E-Polling", Danilo Bruschi, Igor Nai Fovino, Andrea Lanzi, E-Government: Towards Electronic Democracy, International Conference, TCGOV 2005, Bolzano, Italy, March 2-4, 2005, Proceedings. Lecture Notes in Computer Science 3416 Springer 2005, ISBN 3-540-25016-6 I am planning to release the first version together with docs etc, in september (the system is already working, but I prefer not to release preliminary test versions).

Re: free e-voting software available?!
For non-commercial use, ZMAIL offers free voting software and service. The secure ballot may have a Release Time (cannot be read before) and an Expiration Time (cannot be read after), defining when voting begins and ends. Verified voter registration is included. Candidates and voters know that the votes will remain secret until the election closes, and can be verified, without the need to trust a third-party or proxy service. For small elections, the received ballots can be printed and manually tallied, with or without identifying voter information, as desired. The printed ballots can be audited and stored. For large elections, or for commercial use, the entire election work can be automated and third-party audited.

Query your search engine for Punchscan, a design led by the distinguished cryptographer David Chaum, e.g. http://vote.cs.gwu.edu/vsrw2006/papers/9.pdf. Apparently, their development project is aimed at educational votations as an operational proof-of-concept. Interesting project, cryptography application to voting system without number theory or secret key cipher design.

free e-voting software available?!
My department would like to conduct departmental votes in some automated way. We're looking for free software, (or modestly-priced software) to do this. Anyone know of such a thing? I've done some searching without any luck. We don't have the usual requirements of a full-blown voting package (for example, we don't need to ensure that Alice cannot prove whom she voted for later on; this is a typical requirement of voting schemes). We are not voting on earth-shattering events, so it doesn't have to be perfect. We just want to improve on the "email your votes to the secretary" approach. If nothing suitable is out there, I'll likely get a student to write something and put it into the public domain. john// - The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
