Is Internet Voting a Way how to Improve Cost-efficiency of the Czech Electoral System?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Modern society in developed countries is increasingly using information and communication technologies (ICT). In many areas, people cannot imagine life without ICT because they make it easier and faster to decide, manage or evaluate projects and activities, but they have not yet fully succeeded in some areas. One of these forgotten areas is the election and introduction of an electronic way of voting. Politicians debate whether an internet or correspondent form of voting could increase the voter turnout, and at the same time reduce the cost of holding elections. The paper analyzes the use of internet voting in Estonia, which this method of voting allows. Furthermore, the paper analyzes the data on access of Czech households to the Internet and also the share of households using the internet for financial transactions that are comparable in terms of sensitivity of electoral data. Based on this analysis, it was found that internet voting method which uses the Internet cannot completely replace the traditional method of voting. In the case of the Czech Republic, there would probably be no increase in voter turnout or reduction of election costs.
