Abstract :
We propose a voting protocol that satisfies the requirements of secure voting in computer networks. By using the IC card, this protocol can be much more practical. Since the data is processed in advance by the CPU of the IC card, it reduces the loading of a voting system and the congestion of networks. We handle the voter´s authentication with the Diffie-Hellman (1976) public key distribution (PKD) concept
