Edmonton, Alberta: City considers e-voting option

City considers e-voting option

The city is looking at the possibility of electronic voting in the next Edmonton civic election.

E-voting, which can mean casting ballots through the Internet or over the telephone, has been tried over the last decade in other parts of Canada and several European countries.

Staff expect to come up with proposals by next fall on options, including electronic ballots and touch screens, to properly prepare for e-voting in the 2013 election. --->>>
