A SECURE AND PRACTICAL ELECTRONIC VOTING SCHEME FOR PEEL WORLD ENVIRONMENTS

In this paper, we propose a practical and secure electronic voting sch eme which meets the requirements of large scale general elections. Thi s scheme involves voters, the administrator or so called the governmen t and some scrutineers. In our scheme, a voter only has to communicate with the administrator three times and it ensures independence among voters without the need of any global computation. This scheme uses th e threshold cryptosystem to guarantee the fairness among the candidate 's campaign and to provide mechanism for achieving the function that a ny voter can make an open objection to the tally if his vote has not b een published. This scheme preserves the privacy of a voter against th e administrator, scrutineers, and other voters. Completeness, robustne ss, and verifiability of the voting process are ensured and hence no o ne can produce a false tally, corrupt or disrupt the election.
