Abstract

An experimental web portal realizing the functions of the “Guarantor” internet voting system is presented. Basic design principles of the system are summarized, together with the motivation behind their choice and the benefits of implementing the “Guarantor” system or a different e-voting system offering similar functionality to emerging democracies. Structure and operation of the system are explained, also touching upon the cryptographic instruments used in the system.
