Abstract
We present Scratch, Click & Vote remote voting scheme. The scheme is end-to-end verifiable and allows for voting over the Internet. It guarantees security against malicious hardware and software used by a voter; a voter’s computer does not get any knowledge about the voter’s choice. Moreover, it can blindly change the voter’s ballot with a small probability only.
