Disclosed herein are systems and methods for counting a ballot in an electronic voting system. In one aspect, an exemplary method comprises, generating, by a token generator of the system, a number of tokens, wherein every token unambiguously identify actions of a user during an electronic voting, when the user is identified and authenticated successfully, enabling the user to select a token from the number of tokens, activating, by a ballot activator of the system, a ballot for the user, wherein activating includes generating the ballot, unambiguously relating the token selected by the user to the ballot, and enabling the user to access the ballot, and counting, by a ballot counter of the system, the ballot filled out by the user.
