Subject: TR: E-voting: Fichier de résultats en EML
Hello
John,
We
are trying to implement EML in our e-voting system. We first start with the
output of the e-voting system (schema 460).
Here
is the result with some questions of my colleagues.
Can
you tell is if we are on the good track and help us going further ?
If
you are not any longer involved in this subject, could you tell me whith whom I
should work that on.
Best
regards
Michel
Warynski

Dear sir,
We have been
trying to improve our system with the eml standard. In simple terms, we try to:
Generate an
eml output file for our e-voting system containing all the casted votes of a
referendum.
In this first
iteration, we are trying to generate the simplest set of results.
Let's assume
the following referendum operation:
(I'm sorry the
questions are in french, but I thought it was interesting to use a real world
example that has already happened in Geneva)
17 juin 2007
Votation fédérale (1 question)
Fed-Q1 : Acceptez-vous la modification du 6
octobre 2006 de la loi fédérale sur l'assurance-invalidité (5e révision de
l'AI) ?
Votation cantonale (2 questions)
GE-Q1 : Acceptez-vous la loi constitutionnelle
modifiant la constitution de la République et canton de Genève (Propriété et
responsabilité des Services industriels de Genève), du 25 janvier 2007 (A 2 00
- 9825) ?
GE-Q2 : Acceptez-vous la loi d'aliénation et
d'investissement découlant d'opérations de transfert d'actifs entre l'Etat de
Genève et l'Aéroport International de Genève, du 16 novembre 2006 (9827) ?
Votation locale
Meyrin (1 question) (Meyrin is a city in geneva canton)
Meyrin-Q1 : Acceptez vous le trajet
gouvernemental du tram?
Hereafter,
you will find our best effort files:
<<Eml_ElectionEvent_V1.xml>>
Eml_ElectionEvent_V1.xml
is generated in advance and essentially links the election/contest ids with the
official question formulation.
<<Eml_votes_V1.xml>>
The
Eml_Votes_V1.xml is the e-voting output containing the casted votes, ready to
be counted.
We have
several questions about these files. Essentially regarding the choice of the
ids.
- Are
the ids of the ElectionIdentifiers optimal ?
- Are the
ids of the ContestIdentifier optimal ?
- Could
these results be considered as a first version of valid and correct eml files ?
Best regards
Manuel Acevedo
