E-Voting readiness mapping for general election implementation

Abstrak

General elections are a common thing in the world for democratic countries to elect their leaders and deputies in parliament. Today's technology offers an electronic-based electoral system called e-voting, a safer, faster and more efficient system. Due to privacy, verification and confidentiality of conventional elections, there are many countries, both developing countries and developed countries around the world, that have implemented e-voting, such as: India, Brazil, the Philippines, Argentina, United States, Belgium, Canada, Japan, Mexico, France, Peru, Australia, Costa Rica, Finland, Guatemala, United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Kazakhstan, Netherland, Germany, Paraguay, Norway, Switzerland and others. Of those countries, there are countries which are successful and sustainable, unsuccessful or canceled the program due to many problems, only limited the program to trial and not continued, or only limited the program to partial implementation. This research presents a mapping of the elements needed to deal with the implementation of e-voting by referring to the successful and unsuccessful countries in its implementation, as well as to the previous e-voting research. There are two contributions produced in this research. First, mapping the preparatory components in building the e-voting ecosystem. Second, the mapping of these components can be used as the basis for creating an e-voting framework. Hopefully the results of this research can give contribution to countries or organizations that will carry out e-voting or research of develop e-voting framework in the future.
