This question is one of several that come up reliably in every discussion about electronic voting. The short answer is, the incentives and requirements for banking are very different.
Would you consider taking a few minutes to read this? http://zesty.ca/pubs/yee-phd-ch1to3.pdf http://zesty.ca/pubs/yee-phd-ch1to3.pdf
I put a bunch of effort into explaining these issues as well as I could, and that's the result. I'm pretty happy with it and sometimes wish that it were required reading for people participating in discussions about electronic voting.
- Y_Y 9y agoI assume that's part of your PHD thesis. Without having the time to read it in detail I admit that you've probably spent a lot more time than most here thinking about this and rather than try to repeat your many strong criticisms of purely electronic voting I'd encourage anyone else interested to read it too. Perhaps you can enlighten me on this point: > "Voting machines aren’t supposed to record video or keep any record that associates you with your votes, because your ballot is supposed to be secret" Is this definitely impossible even allowing for (possibly impractical) secret-sharing schemes where you provide enough information to prove you're a valid voter and to check afterwards that your vote was counted, without giving away to anyone else how you voted?
