Abstract
This project presents a generic secure electronic voting scheme for mobile phones, based on teh work of Y. Feng S Ng and S. Schwiderski-Grosche (2005), which can be implemented in contexts that require secure casting of votes such as parliamentary and national elections. The voting scheme presented is secured by use of the blind signature protocol and public key encryption. The security property of voter verification, democracy, voter anonymity and privacy, integrity and availability are achieved. Finally an analysis and design of a mobile phone voting system using the blind signature protocol is undertaken, and a simulation developed and presented.
