> There are ways to build anonymous but auditable voting schemes. I have yet to see one that involves a digital voting system. Many of these voting systems are insecure and F/OSS(free and open source) won't fix that. You are giving too many people physical access to these systems at every step of the chain. Many have proposed a "blockchain" based voting scheme, but that takes out the anonymous aspect of voting. > Same goes with money, these things called crypto currencies are digital money offering various levels of anonymity. Yes and none of them provides any anonymity since they all at one point or another reveals too much about a given transaction. With paper ballots, it's really difficult/infeasible to track who voted for whom and is a bit more tamper resistant on a large scale. edit: a word.
