In nine official votes between January 2003 and November 2006, authorities in Geneva invited up to 90,000 citizens to test a remote e-Voting system as a complement to traditional voting methods. Multidisciplinary teams composed of legal, political, PR, security and computer science specialists, strongly supported by the Government, participated in creating the system which has been positively appraised by the Geneva Parliament in 2006.
Portuguese Version Only: Gemalto's comparative study puts Portugal between the seven countries chosen as examples of an "advanced" e-Government. The research has the World e-Democracy and Electronic Administration Forum support.
