This paper addresses the democracy-oriented regulatory and legal requirements that e-democracy impacts. It demonstrates that the structure of the political system also plays a significant role in the decision to develop an e-voting application. The short term perspective of the questions put before the electorate obliterate the long term perspective in which many policy problems have to be seen. A well-designed e-voting system should produce an audit trail that is even stronger than that of conventional systems (including paper-based systems). Remote Internet voting systems pose significant risk to the integrity of the voting process, and should not be fielded for use in public elections until substantial technical and social science issues are addressed. Conclusively the paper focuses on the specific attributes an electronic voting (polling place) system should respect and ensure such as transparency, verifiability, accountability, security and accuracy in relation to the constitutional requirements such as General, Free. Equal, Secret, Direct and Democratic.

현재의 전자투표 시스템은 투표자로 하여금 일방적인 신뢰를 강요하고 있으며, 투표자의 의도대로 기록되었음을 입증하지도 않는다. 전자투표가 종이투표 방식보다 많은 장점을 제공할 것이라고 기대하고 있음에도 불구하고 이러한 신뢰성 결여는 전자투표 실시를 막는 주요 요인이 되고 있다. 많은 전문가들은 투표자에게 투표기가 정확하게 동작하고 있음을 확신시키기 위해 영수증을 발급하는 방안을 긍정적으로 고려하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미 잘 알려진 cut-and-choose 방식을 응용한 영수증 발급 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 방식은 특수한 영수증 출력 장치나 제삼자에 의한 투표기 검증 등이 필요없으며, 기존 방식보다 높은 안전성을 제공한다.

블록체인 기술은 분권화를 통해 투표 과정에서 이루어질 수 있는 부당한 개입과 조작을 방지하여 투표 결과의 신뢰성을 높여 공정한 여론 수렴의 어려움으로 인해 대리 의사결정이 이루어지던 많은 분야에서 직접 의사결정의 가능성을 열어 주었다. 전세계적으로 공공 의사결정에 블록체인 기술을 활용한 투표 시스템을 도입하려는 시도가 이루어지고 있으며, 이는 투명하고 공정한 여론 수렴 채널로 기능하여 공공 의사결정 과정과 지배구조에 큰 변화를 가져올 것으로 기대된다. 최근 스튜어드십 코드를 도입한 국민연금의 경우, 지배구조에 대한 불신으로 인해 스튜어드십 코드 도입 취지와 달리 국민연금 가입자의 이해에 반하는 주주권 행사와 지나친 경영 간섭이 일어날 것이란 우려가 제기 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국민연금 사례를 중심으로 가입자 의견 수렴과 공공 의사결정을 위한 블록체인 기술을 응용한 투표 시스템을 제안하고 이를 도입하기 위해 마련되어야 할 사회적 제도적 제반 여건에 대해 논의한다.

The issue "Exploring Social Media and Other Crucial Success Elements of Attitude towards Politics and Intention for Voting in Pakistan" is a huge study embracing more issues. The politics of Pakistan is basically the politics of semantic groups. Pakistan is a multilingual state more than six languages. There are 245 religious parties in Pakistan, as elaborated by the Daily Times research. The use of social media sites in Pakistan peaked to its maximum after announcement of election schedule by the Election Commission of Pakistan in March 22, 2013. Most of the political parties used it for the recent elections in Pakistan to promote their agenda and attract country's 80 million registered electors. This study was aiming to investigate the role of social media and other critical variables in the attitude towards politics and intention for voting.

There are various cases that we vote for making a decision or combining ideas (i.e. human being's opinions) in group meetings. Group Decision Support System(GDSS) provides us with a number of voting methods for decision making or aggregation of the ideas. It is generally difficult to select a voting method appropriate for given a meeting situation, without any aid of experts or computers having a knowledge on voting. In this paper we propose a supporting system for selecting an appropriate voting method. Since the selected method is recommended to the facilitator of GDSS, a part of time and effort related with the voting would be reduced. The knowledge in the system is represented as rules that are inductively generated from examples of voting. We used UNiK-INDUCE with ID3 algorithm so as to learn, which is a tool of developing expert systems.

The Global IT revolution is growing rapidly. Government and business have to be ready to meet the increased demand for effective and secure online services. With the E-Government practicing, day-by-day the public demand is also increasing simultaneously. Now this present moment, one of important research part is secure E-Voting for E-Government service, but for this important factor or Government Issue, it needs information privacy for secure information transaction of citizen’s opinions and secure authentication. This paper has analyzed several approaches E-voting protocols, those are implemented with many digital signature mechanism and maintained many types of cryptographic rules, which are main factor for information privacy. In this paper we have discussed them with a view to voter anonymity and protection from manipulations. The paper then developed an algorithm designed to guarantee anonymity of the voter and to avoid the risk of manipulation of votes. In this paper the proposed algorithm is based upon the strict separation of voter’s registration and submission of votes, which means that certain information has to be stored on a secure storage media.

본 연구는 최근 새로운 고객 참여방식으로 자리매김한 고객 투표를 통한 마케팅 의사결정 방식에 주목하였다. 이는 서비스 산업에서도 중요한 고객 임파워먼트 전략(Customer Empowerment Strategy, CES)의 하나인 선택형 임파워먼트 형태라고 할 수 있다. 선택형 임파워먼트 중 투표방식의 장단점에 국한되어 있는 선행연구와는 달리 본 연구에서는 다수의 최종안이 선정되는 상황을 상정하고, 고객이 하나의 후보에 투표하는 단수투표 시스템과 복수의 후보에 투표하는 다중투표 시스템 간의 차이를 고객의 지속적 투표 참여 의사와 투표 참여 행태를 통해 분석하였다. 또한, 이러한 투표 시스템 간의 차이를 만드는 요인을 투표 결과의 불확실성으로 보고 그 매개효과를 검증하였다. 연구 가설의 검증을 위해 사람과 상품을 대상으로 투표를 하는 두 개의 실험을 진행하였으며, 다중선형회귀분석과 매개효과 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 상품 투표의 경우 다중투표 시스템은 고객 참여 의사와 전략적 투표 행태를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났으나, 사람에 대한 투표의 경우 전략적 투표 행태에만 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 불확실성은 다중투표 시스템의 효과를 매개하지 않아 간접효과는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 학술적으로 선택형 임파워먼트를 세분화시킴으로써 향후 연구에서 고객 참여 방식을 구체화 했다는 점과 실무적으로 기업의 투표 시스템 선택에 방향성을 제시한다는 측면에서 기여점이 있다.

What motivates split-ticket voting in mixed electoral systems, where voters choose one party in district races and another party on the party list ballot? While much of the literature assumes strategic intent, three aspects commonly are overlooked: the competitiveness of district races, the presence of a district candidate from one's preferred party, and whether voters know the electoral threshold for party list seats. Furthermore, few studies disaggregate types of split-ticket voting (e.g. not voting for one's preferred party in a district vs. party list). Taiwan provides an intriguing case study for analysis, not only as a relatively new adopter of a mixed system, but also the presence of additional conditions that would encourage at least the consideration of a split ticket. Using survey data from the Taiwan's Election and Democratization Studies (TEDS) after the Taiwan's 2016 Legislative Yuan election, this analysis finds that knowing the threshold, the winner's margin, and the placement of a district candidate from one's preferred party all influence split-ticket voting among those with a partisan preference. However, closer inspection identifies a distinction between defecting from the district versus the party list. Evidence shows that district competitiveness and candidate placement influences defection from the district candidate, while the electoral threshold influences defection from the party list. The results add to our understanding of strategic and non-strategic incentives in mixed systems.

With the development of networking technology, it has become common to use various types of network services to replace physical ones. Among all such services, electronic voting is one example that tends to be popularized in many countries. However, due to certain concerns regarding information security, traditional paper voting mechanisms are still widely adopted in large-scale elections. This study utilizes blockchain technology to design a novel electronic voting mechanism. Relying on the transparency, decentralization, and verifiability of the blockchain, it becomes possible to remove the reliance on trusted third parties and also to enhance the level of trust of voters in the mechanism. Besides, the mechanism of blind signature with its complexity as difficult as solving an elliptic curve discrete logarithmic problem is adopted to strengthen the features related to the security of electronic voting. Last but not least, the mechanism of self-certification is incorporated to substitute the centralized certificate authority. Therefore, the voters can generate the public/private keys by themselves to mitigate the possible risks of impersonation by the certificate authority (i.e., a trusted third party). The BAN logic analysis and the investigation for several key security features are conducted to verify that such a design is sufficiently secure. Since it is expected to raise the level of trust of voters in electronic voting, extra costs for re-verifying the results due to distrust will therefore be reduced.

The sailors on seagoing ships experience much difficulty in communicating with their families, friends or associates ashore due to communication cost or technical difficulties so that they are sometimes unable to adapt to the rapid social changes promptly. This is mainly the result of an insufficient Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-environment on their ships. To surmount such a problem, an electronic shipboard voting system that guarantees the publicness and absolute secrecy in voting process has been proposed in this paper. The system not only helps crews to catch up with up-to-date news and provides them a feeling that they are being connected to the everyday lives of the outside world, but also allows them to cast their votes based on the newly acquired information (e.g., current political or economic situations in their respective regions and etc.).
