Summary:A method allows a random sample of a large population of voters to cast votes and for both the unpredictability/un-manipulability of the sample selection and the integrity of the tally to be verified by any interested parties using public information. The problem of vote selling is addressed. Also, a variant allows voters to remain substantially anonymous. L'invention concerne un procédé qui permet à un échantillon aléatoire d'une population importante d'électeurs de voter, et permet à l'imprédictibilité/la non-manipulabilité de la sélection de l'échantillon ainsi qu'à l'intégrité du comptage d'être vérifiées par toute partie intéressée par le biais d'informations publiques. L'invention aborde le problème de la vente des votes. En outre, une variante permet aux électeurs de garder sensiblement l'anonymat.
