E-voting, at least to me, looks completely idiotic. Why would we trust our most important civic duty, voting, to a collection of hardware that's known to be extremely vulnerable to attacks in every other job we give it? Having said that, I think you could make it work with a paper audit trail that contained both the current vote tally and the current vote -- and was distributed to the person voting at the time they voted. (Then do random audits) (And of course that information would be obscured in some way, perhaps using encryption)
