Electronic voting system and method

Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic voting system and method for integrally managing and operating, as electronic voting, various kinds of voting methods and simultaneously performing mirroring backup synchronization, wherein the various kinds of voting methods, such as carrying out electronic voting by using separate terminals for voting, carrying out mobile electronic voting by using voter terminals, and carrying out online electronic voting through the Internet by using voter terminals, are integrally managed and operated as electronic voting, and the mirroring backup synchronization with an electronic voting provision server through a mirroring backup server is simultaneously performed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electronic voting system and method, in particular to an electronic voting system and method for synchronizing mirroring backup (Mirroring Backup) while comprehensively managing electronic voting and using various voting methods. Background technique [0002] As an important means of decision-making, the principle of majority decision has become a common practice in democratic societies, and votes are used for various purposes, from the election of the president, congressmen, student council presidents, etc., to the decision of important national policies. In addition, with the recent rapid development of information and communication infrastructure, traditional offline voting has gradually evolved into electronic voting based on information and communication technology. [0003] Most electronic voting related technologies are limited to security related technologies based on encryption / decryption and do not provide ...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] In the existing electronic voting system as described above, various devices and methods such as electronic voting using a separate voting terminal, electronic voting using a mobile communication terminal, or electronic voting through the Internet are operated separately. Different electronic voting devices and methods are centralized to the central server for unified management and operation. Moreover, there have been excessive demands for increasing the capacity of the central server, reaching the limit of data processing capacity, and unable to vote when the server is paralyzed.

[0008] In the conventional electronic voting system as described above, especially when using a separate voting terminal, various procedures such as voter confirmation and voter authentication are required, so voting takes a long time and is inconvenient

In addition, the existing electronic voting system needs to collect the respective voting results when using different places and devices to vote, and cannot immediately confirm the vote counting results and make statistics, which leads to low efficiency of the vote counting business. events and elections, it is difficult to quickly obtain accurate statistics, and it is also difficult to confirm the voting time and whether everyone participating in the election immediately after the election; in addition, it is impossible to generate votes in real time and conduct them immediately
