- KonferenzbeitragThe role of trust, participation and identity in the propensity to e- and i-vote(4th International Conference on Electronic Voting 2010, 2010) Caporusso, LetiziaThe paper analyzes the issue of citizens' propensity to deploy automated elections as a dependent of several ascribed and attitudinal factors. Data are drawn from a computer-assisted telephone survey carried out in the Autonomous Province of Trento, which through project ProVotE sponsors the largest program of touchscreen-based voting in Italy. Alongside socio-demographic variables such as sex, age, education, and occupation, we describe how socio-political attitudes such as trust, participation, and identity affect the propensity to vote by automated means. We conclude that, based on the binomial and multinomial logistic models we implemented, our data support the hypothesis of existing divides between those who are favourable to automation in elections and those who are not, the main cleavages being age and level of education. Furthermore, a greater degree of trust in the generalised other is needed in e-voting but not perceived in i-voting, while both voting procedures appeal those who are already politically mobilized but less attached to traditions.
- KonferenzbeitragTransition to electronic voting and citizen participation(Electronic Voting 2006 – 2nd International Workshop, Co-organized by Council of Europe, ESF TED, IFIP WG 8.6 and E-Voting.CC, 2006) Caporusso, Letizia; Buzzi, Carlo; Fele, Giolo; Peri, Pierangelo; Sartori, FrancescaThis paper draws attention to the need of a systematic socio-technical approach to introducing electronic voting and presents early results from a pilot project conducted by the Provincia Autonoma di Trento, Italy. Main features of this experience are the constant monitoring of the social impact and the development of a technological solution in accordance to the suggestions provided by the users themselves. We recommend that no sudden switch to a new form of ballot should be imposed on electors but rather that research is to be fostered in order to uncover and preserve the traditional and symbolic connotations embedded in the act of voting.
