How does BallotBox make sure no one votes more than once, if voting is anonymous?
BallotBox records the date and time each vote is cast in a poll, along with the Voter ID of the voter, and the IP address from which that voter connected to BallotBox. This information is recorded as an integral part of the encrypted ballot, so that while online votes are being accepted in that particular poll, BallotBox can ensure the same Voter ID is not used to cast another ballot. When the online voting period is over, a quorum of the Poll Officers you designate will enter their passwords so that BallotBox can decrypt all of the cast ballots, which are then stored without reference to the Voter IDs so that the poll’s results can be viewed.
