   “First, we discuss the human rights framework underlying the right to vote… Here, our conclusion is that transparency in elections is a prerequisite to trust in the outcome of elections, and as such it is a core requirement of the right to vote. Then we focus on how Electronic Voting Machines compare to a paper-based election process when it comes to transparency; we conclude there that EVMs have a fundamental problem satisfying this requirement.” https://www.ivir.nl/new-report-the-right-to-trust-your-vote-cybersecurity-human-rights-and-electronic-voting/

     “We then move on to discuss three case studies of the use of EVMs, namely in India, Brazil and the US. These cases demonstrate that the associated lack of transparency has undermined trust in the outcome of elections in those countries. We then close with observations on the role of EVMs in elections, and how the right to vote stands in the way of the use of EVMs.”
