WPES: "Privacy Issues in an Electronic Voting Machine"

In case anyone out there is interested, here is the preprint version of our OVC-inspired privacy paper for the ACM's WPES 2004 upcoming in October: "Privacy Issues in an Electronic Voting Machine"

Here's the abstract:

ABSTRACT
In this paper, we describe the Open Voting Consortium's voting system and discuss the privacy issues inherent in this system. By extension, many of the privacy issues in this paper also apply to other electronic voting machines, such as DREs (Direct Recording Electronic voting machines). The privacy issues illustrate why careful and thorough design is required to ensure voter privacy and ballot secrecy.
