Electronic Vote and Internet Campaining: State of the Art in Europe and Remaining Questions

Abstract

Recent experiments shows that internet voting is not the political blessing that lots of politicians had hoped it would be to solve the non-ending legitimation crisis modern societies are going through. Our article focuses on four questions about internet voting to stress some experimental results and important remaining questions. We would like to insist on the lack of studies trying to apprehend how people trust these new electronic voting systems and how do they cope with the end of the voting rituals.
