| Comment : | At the end of the election, the election authorities can retrieve the electronic votes from
the DRE and check their validity by verifying their digital signatures (generated by the
DRE and the Audit Module) before counting them. The election authorities can also
check the validity of the printed votes by verifying their digital signatures (generated by
the DRE and the Audit Module) before counting them. In this way, printed votes and
electronic votes can be cross-checked using their ballot identifiers and the
corresponding digital signatures. This feature allows recovering lost electronic or paper
votes and valid votes that have been invalidated due to printing or electronic errors.
The record of digitally signed voter-verified votes in the Audit Module can also be used
to check the election accuracy and solve disputes. | |
