<div>I am very impressed by the IIEC and the handling of the referendum. Here is a good article on best practices for electronic voting. It builds from the american and australian experience. </div>

Especially the confirmation of the result which has to be done on a “signed” Form 16A assuming physical nature of the form. I am not sure how this is affected by the new constitution. Having said that the IIEC has this on top of their agenda, so I suspect come 2012, e-Voting will be in place. I think its in order to congratulate the IIEC and especially their Tech team.<br>
