With countries across the globe proactively addressing the need for election and governance modernization, 2014 has set a benchmark of governments embracing innovative technology for more secure, transparent, accessible and efficient elections. Key in supporting this shift has been the leverage of Scytl secure technology by 30% of the countries that held binding elections in 2014.
“We are extremely proud to see Scytl eDemocracy solutions helping both public and private organizations around the globe positively impact the lives of citizens by providing higher acceptability of election and governance processes and outcome,” says Pere Valles, CEO of Scytl.
Significant highlights in the adoption of innovative, secure and scalable online election technology include:
- European Union: Scytl Election Night Reporting successfully deployed to publish the election results for the largest multi-nation election worldwide.
- India: Scytl Online Voting securely used in one of the largest elections worldwide.
- France: Scytl Online voting leveraged not only in 3 ministries (Education, Foreign Affairs and Interior) but supported the largest online voting election worldwide.
The uptake of new technology coexists with a global paradigm present in 2014 which looks to continue in 2015. In emerging democracies, citizens continue to make their demands of their right to vote and protests known in the streets; while in more mature democracies, voter participation in many cases continues to decline.
Independent of country and stage of democracy, enabling innovative and proven election specific technology should lead to higher participation amongst voters and create more transparent and efficient electoral processes at all stages of the election: from campaign financing, to online voting, through to results consolidation and reporting .
