End-to-End Verifiable Election technology has been studied by the cryptographic research community for more than a quarter century. Unlike traditional systems, end-to-end verifiable elections use cryptographic techniques to enable individual voters and even simple observers to verify that every vote has been counted accurately. This can be done without placing any trust whatsoever in election equipment (including both hardware and software) or in election officials.
