Eligo Announces Peer-Reviewed Paper on Verifiable Online Voting Published and Presented at E-Vote-ID 2025

Eligo has published a peer-reviewed paper addressing revote, low coercion and verifiable online voting, recently presented at the international conference E-Vote-ID 2025 in Nancy, France.

-- Eligo, a European provider of secure digital voting solutions, today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed paper exploring how verifiable online voting can be achieved in real-world elections.

The paper has been accepted in the Cryptology ePrint Archive and was presented at E-Vote-ID 2025, the Tenth International Joint Conference on Electronic Voting, held in Nancy, France. The study documents Eligo’s experience supporting the UNITA Student Assembly elections, focusing on three key requirements: enabling revote, ensuring end-to-end verifiability, and reducing coercion risks.

Publication highlights

The paper presents a practical case study in which nearly 250,000 students across Europe were eligible to participate in online elections for UNITA, a consortium of European universities.

Key findings include:

  • Revote: The system allowed voters to cast multiple ballots during the election period, with only the final submission counted. This option reduces errors and helps mitigate coercion.
  • Verifiable online voting: Voters were provided with secure receipts to confirm that their ballots were correctly recorded and included in the final tally.
  • Low coercion: The architecture was designed to minimize external pressure on voters, ensuring ballots were cast freely and privately.

This combination demonstrates that verifiable online voting can be both technically feasible and user-friendly when applied at scale.

Academic collaboration and industry relevance

The system described in the paper was developed in collaboration with SEEV Technologies, a UK-based company led by Professor Feng Hao of the University of Warwick, co-author of the DRE-ip voting protocol. The partnership enabled the integration of advanced cryptographic mechanisms into Eligo’s voting platform, bringing academic research into practical deployment.

By addressing revote, verifiability, and low coercion simultaneously, the success case provides a model for other organisations—universities, associations, and federations—that seek secure and transparent online elections.

Irene Pugliatti, CEO of Eligo, added:
“This publication marks an important milestone for Eligo. It demonstrates that verifiable online voting can support inclusive and trustworthy elections, while remaining simple for organisers and accessible to voters.”

About the conference

The paper was presented at E-Vote-ID 2025, the leading international conference dedicated to electronic voting, held from October 1–3, 2025 in Nancy, France. Since its inception, the event has gathered academics, policymakers, and industry representatives to discuss advances and challenges in digital voting systems.
