eBallots anonymous voting option ensures secrecy. With anonymous voting, eBallot records the voter as having voted (therefore preventing them from voting again), but with this option the eBallot system does not display to the organization which candidate or choice a voter voted for. Moreover, the eBallot system is 128-bit SSL encrypted so that votes cannot be intercepted while being cast.
