“…Many voting machines can be moved via the Internet, telephone, mobile phone, or satellite without communications links. They can also be physically moved using electronic storage media such as memory cards (Harfst, Blais, & Bol, 2018).…”

“…The advantage that emerges from the application of e-voting is that this system provides convenience to voters, as there is no more convenient place to vote than at home, and when electoral participation is so easy that it only requires logging in to a website and selecting a few checkboxes in an electronic form. By clicking on the vote button, there will likely be a noticeable improvement in the level of voter turnout and, thus, the legitimacy of the results (Grönlund, 2002;Harfst, Blais, & Bol, 2018).…”

“…However, Pratchett and colleagues conclude that eDV turnout would probably resemble traditional voting trends. Regardless of how broadly accessible the pertinent technologies are in society; the evidence indicates that e-voting will maintain the current socioeconomic and demographic divides between those who vote and those who do not (Giraldo, Milton, & Gamboa, 2020;Gustafsson, 2002;Harfst, Blais, & Bol, 2018).…”

Purpose: This research investigates the e-voting system in the United Arab Emirates by comparing European countries such as the UK, Switzerland, and Netherlands experiences. Theoretical framework: The current research consists of an introduction and the definition of e-voting in addition to the advantages and risks of the e-voting system, no ultimate judgment, e-voting as a subject of structuration, legal and technical guarantees for e-voting, types, and techniques of e-voting, e-voting in Europe, and e-voting in the United Arab Emirates. Design/Methodology/Approach: It should be noted that descriptive and analytical methods have been adopted in this study, clarifying the concept of e-voting and then addressing the advantages and risks of e-voting, in addition to comparative approach has been used to compare European countries such as UK, Switzerland, and Netherland from one side, and the United Arab Emirates from the other side. Findings of the paper: The UAE has electronic voting systems that help empower people to vote from anywhere. Research, Practical & Social implications: We suggest using AI in election systems to enhance public participation, empower people, and facilitate people's voting to make it easy and fast. Originality/Value: We propose to create electronic systems for public procurement in the Emirates that do not have electronic systems for public procurement, in addition to continually introducing technical support to the employees to avoid mistakes and to enhance effectiveness and efficiency.

Does candidate gender matter for vote choice? Whereas experimental research suggests an average preference for female candidates, observational studies tend to find null effects. In this note, we address the recent debate on how to measure voter preferences on the aggregate and the individual level. We argue that candidate gender preferences exist, but that whether and when they are revealed varies between and within voters. Drawing on an observational design and using data from over 500,000 individual ballots in Lithuanian elections, we employ multilevel regression and exponential random graph models to show how voters' candidate gender preferences are distributed across the electorate and how they vary in size and direction. We find that about half of all voters prefer either male or female candidates. Whereas preference for male candidates tends to be revealed in the first and second preference votes, preference for female candidates is first revealed in lower preference votes. Our results help explain contradictory findings in the literature and illustrate how observational data and methods can be used to assess voter preferences within electorates.
