21 Properties of OAV (1) Alice verifies her vote. (2) Everyone verifies tallying. (3) Alice cannot be coerced by Eve.

34 The Need for Simple

35 The Need for Simple Too complicated = disenfranchisement. voter experience needs to be almost as simple as it is today

36 The Need for Simple Too complicated = disenfranchisement. voter experience needs to be almost as simple as it is today Intuitive enough for officials to adopt

37 The Need for Simple Too complicated = disenfranchisement. voter experience needs to be almost as simple as it is today Intuitive enough for officials to adopt But... let s not expect everyone to understand everything.

38 Continuing the Simplicity Trend Chaum s Punchscan Ryan s Prêt-à-Voter Benaloh s simple cryptographic voting

39 Scratch-and-Vote Experience

40 Charlie Adam Bob Bob DavidCharlie David Adam 1. Receive two ballots.

41 Charlie Adam Bob David Charlie Adam Bob David r 1 r 2 r 3 r 4 2. Choose one randomly for auditing by scratch-off.

42 Bob Charlie David Adam 3. Vote.

43 arlie Bob David Adam Adam Bob Charlie David Charlie Bob Adam David Bob Charlie David Adam 4. Tear & Discard left half of ballot.

44 5. Tear & Discard scratch-off. Scan & take home

45 Tallying

49 Proof of Ballot (NIZK)

50 Proof of Ballot (NIZK) Malicious Voter submits: Enc(1000)

51 Proof of Ballot (NIZK) Malicious Voter submits: Enc(1000) in S&V, ciphertexts are picked ahead of time

52 Proof of Ballot (NIZK) Malicious Voter submits: Enc(1000) in S&V, ciphertexts are picked ahead of time but... what if election officials collude with a voter to throw the election with a bad ballot?

53 Proof of Ballot (NIZK) Malicious Voter submits: Enc(1000) in S&V, ciphertexts are picked ahead of time but... what if election officials collude with a voter to throw the election with a bad ballot? election officials must prepare proofs of correct ballot form ahead of time, on bulletin board (~80K per full ballot).

54 Practical Considerations 5 questions, 5 options per question. Ballot Verification: less than a second. Barcode Encoding: PDF417 open standard. Barcode Size: 10 square inches of barcode for a full sheet visual ballot. Proof Time: ~3 seconds per ballot.

55 Limitations Write-in Votes: not supported Take-Home Receipt: not currently legal

56 Scratch & Vote Personal Verification: scratch and verify Open-Audit: anyone can verify the tally Incoercible: voting booth & encryption Simple: common & cheap tech, process is close to current voting.
