The UCLM prepares a modification of its Regulations to be able to hold elections electronically | Radio Albacete

The Castilla-La Mancha university prepare a modification of your Electoral Regulations to be able to celebrate elections so telematics. We recall that an electoral process to elect rector was scheduled this spring, which was postponed due to the coroanvirus. University sources point out that, at the moment, there is no date for these elections.

It will be the General Secretary which may call elections to unipersonal and collegiate bodies through the electronic vote, from any device connected to the internet, through an encrypted channel and storing it in a cryptographically protected digital ballot box.

In order to vote, the voter will have to appear in the electoral census and have the specified identification and authentication system. An electoral table, unique and different from those for face-to-face voting, will be set up, which will supervise the process, guard the keys, scrutinize the votes and transfer the results to the Electoral Commission.

He system voting telematic can be combined with presential, although the voter will have to opt for one of the methods. In the proposal to modify the Electoral Regulations, the University explains that the health pandemic caused by the coronavirus advises having these formulas planned so that future health measures do not prevent exercising the right to vote and being able to hold entirely electronic electoral processes.
