  • Abstract
    We present a detailed comparison of the Pret a Voter (PaV) and PunchScan (PS) protocols for booth voting. We also describe a simpler variation that keeps the ballot layout of PaV-Voter but borrows the cryptography from PS, which is based on any commitment scheme. By using unconditionally hiding commitments we obtain a conceptually very simple voting protocol with unconditional privacy.
