Contra Costa County Ballot SurveyIn the Contra Costa County Shadow Election, voter feedback about the test and the possibilities of voting using the Internet, including voting from home, was even more important than knowing the voter's political preferences. A Safevote representative personally interviewed the voters at Contra Costa after they voted using the Safevote system and presented a series of questions to them. When asked if Safevote's system was easy to use, all 307 voters answered yes. As voters' time permitted, other questions followed with a pre-defined format and also included room for spontaneous responses. Approximately 200 voters took the time to answer all questions, with the results given below.
The observed high level of awareness of privacy and security issues among the voters correlated well with their desire to verify whether their ballots were actually received for tallying, as aforementioned. The voters' high level of awareness of privacy and security issues indicates that voters might be well-motivated to cooperate in providing the voter-verified part of the checks and balances called for in Safevote's Election Auditing technology. Public ElectionsSafevote stands ready to certify and conduct Internet and electronic voting in Public Elections, where accepted. Where the certification of Safevote's system depends on legislation still being discussed, Safevote is able to conduct Public Election Trials.
