Agree they should have not use a bespoke algorithm but I don't think there is much of a security issue. Knowing where you need to go to vote is not enough to vote.
You still need the physical security of the ID (DNI) that includes a few security features (like your face). You can see and image here: http://www.aulaclic.es/articulos/graficos/DNIe.gif http://www.aulaclic.es/articulos/graficos/DNIe.gif
From my point of view, this rises a far more interesting question.
Do you guys think it could be possible to use blockchain to implement a secure voting system? I do and I got a few ideas about the main issues (authentication, authorisation, validity period and others) and will be happy to discuss with anyone interested on co-developing such a system... or if you know of one already do let me know!
Seems like if every computer can be a "poling station", authoritarian regimes/governments will have a more difficult way of stopping this sort of voting from happening. And maybe, only maybe, we can enjoy a free democracy.
