A voting system (10) provide at least two independent means for recording and counting votes, e.g., one associated with the voting apparatus and one separate therefrom. One version may provide triple data redundancy in that each vote is recorded by three independent and verifiable means: by recording in one or more electronic memory devices included in the voting machine (VM- n), by recording in the memory of a smart card (SC-n) separate from the voting machine, and by a confirmatory printed record (PR-n) for each voter. The invention may use a voting session identifier to provide transparency of the vote and to maintain the anonymity of the votes (22) and voters (V).

L'invention concerne un dispositif, un système et un procédé pour le scrutin électronique, reposant au moins sur deux scénarios d'enregistrement et de comptage des votes (par exemple, un scénario associé au dispositif et un scénario distinct du dispositif). De préférence, le dispositif, le système et le procédé considérés peuvent assurer une triple redondance de données, car chaque vote est enregistré selon trois scénarios indépendants, susceptibles d'être contrôlés: enregistrement dans une ou plusieurs mémoires électroniques de la machine et/ou du système de scrutin, enregistrement dans la mémoire d'une carte à puce distincte de la machine et/ou du système de scrutin, et/ou enregistrement avec confirmation imprimée pour chaque votant. Aux fins de l'invention, on peut utiliser un identificateur de séance de scrutin pour assurer la transparence du scrutin et garantir l'anonymat du scrutin et des participants au scrutin.
