Abstract

A voting system (10) provide at least two independent means for recording and counting votes, e.g., one associated with the voting apparatus and one separate therefrom. One version may provide triple data redundancy in that each vote is recorded by three independent and verifiable means: by recording in one or more electronic memory devices included in the voting machine (VM-n), by recording in the memory of a smart card (SC-n) separate from the voting machine, and by a confirmatory printed record (PR-n) for each voter. The invention may use a voting session identifier to provide transparency of the vote and to maintain the anonymity of the votes (22) and voters (V).
