Fully agree here; while estonia uses m-id to identify and authenticate for its internet voting, the protocol itself doesn’t run on the mobile. Don’t know the Australian well enough at this point to make a call.

Betreff: Re: [Air-L] E-Voting

    Theoretically  mVoting is an excellent method for elections though it
    is most widely used for polling or surveys..
    
    mVoting for elections with a proven mID system is even more stronger
    case but... there are issues regarding security of mobile
    communications, transparency of the code / institutions,  digital
    divide etc..
    
    Estonia is an early example and a good one and perhaps Australian case
    is more recent..
    
    I don't know any comprehensive research on the topic but there is
    definitely a need and would be interested to know about such research
    too.
