Electronic voting is a challenging application of cryptography technology.In order to replace the traditional voting system,This paper proposes voting protocols that satisfy a variety of security requirements.However,much room for improvements remains,regarding efficiency,participation of trusted authorities,prevention of vote buying and coercion,and formulation of admissible ballots.This paper surveys the security requirements,voting schemes and ballot formats of the current electronic voting system.It puts forward four main challenges faced with electronic voting protocols and introduces with detailed analysis several typical solutions,including visual cryptography,self-tallying election,vector-ballot voting and divisible voting.
