A member of Russias Central Elections Commission has told reporters that the country might introduce online voting, similar to systems used in Switzerland and Estonia, for the 2021 parliamentary elections. <\/p>\n

\u201cConsidering the scale of the Russian Federations territory we have to start using internet voting. I think that we will possibly do something already in the next federal elections campaign \u2013 the 2021 State Duma elections<\/em>,\u201d Vasily Likhachev told reporters on Friday.<\/p>\n

The official added that the main problem that obstructed the possible switch to voting via internet was security concerns adding that the system would be considered viable only when it guarantees that not a single vote will be lost. He also said that positive examples from nations such as Switzerland and Estonia testify to the fact that it can be done.<\/p>\n

In the same interview, Likhachev said that it was necessary to expand the system of absentee voting called \u201cMobile Voter.<\/em>\u201d He said it should be used not only inside the Russian Federation, but also by Russian citizens who live abroad but wish to have a say in domestic politics.<\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently there are 4 million people registered as potential voters in Russian consular offices in foreign nations. We consider it important to give these voters proper legal condition for voting<\/em>,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Over the past years Russia started the program to change from the traditional voting, with paper ballots counted by hand, to the so-called \u201cVoting Ballot Processing Complex\u201d \u2013 a network of ballot boxes equipped with digital scanners that read the ballots as they are cast and automatically tallies the results.<\/p>\n

The system underwent the first major real-life tests in the presidential elections in March 2018. According to the Central Elections Commission about 40 percent of Russians who took part in the voting used the \u201cVoting Ballot Processing Complex\u201d and subsequent manual recount of sample batches of ballots proved that the system worked well.<\/p>\n
