In this paper, we propose a blind multisignature scheme based on an extension of the RSA cryptosystem (called the ERSA system). Taking advantage of the scheme, we then present a new multiauthority electronic election system, which can meet all of the following requirements: eligibility, collision free, vigorousness of authorities, accuracy, privacy, verifiability, robustness, fairness, and prevention of ticket-buying or extortion. In addition, the computations among voters are independent without any global computation, so it is suitable for conducting a largescale general election. Key words: Blind multisignature, multiauthority, electronic election system
