(ANSA) - ROME, JULY 20 - "Direct democracy has had the effect of significantly increasing participation. Those difficulties that led someone not to cast their vote are eliminated. It is also possible for elections to vote remotely, obviously with all necessary security measures ".
This was explained by the regent of M5S Vito Crimipresenting the new SkyVote platform, which tomorrow will debut with the vote on the "municipal" of Turin.
"The SkyVote company has no role in defining the electoral body, which is done by the M5S bodies. The electoral body is then delivered to SkyVote with data that are used exclusively for the identification of the voter. SkyVotec checks that access to the platform is made by those who indicated the M5S . A link is sent to the voter and it is as if it were the electoral card. At the time of the vote there is an additional element of certification, which is the SMS via mobile phone. This mechanism has a series of systems that guarantee secrecy, authenticity and 'uniqueness of the vote ", explains Crimiche urges:" Direct democracy is our beating heart, even for the new statute it continues to be fundamental ".
"Our effort is to combine the principle of democracy with the certainties of truth and transparency. Each polling station is encrypted and the decryption key is in the hands of the notary", underlines Alfonso Colucci, notary who deals with the votes on Skyvote.
Alfonso Di Sotto, CEO of the company, assures that the platform has systems that detect "attacks and intrusions".
"The data - he adds - can only be known at the end and is the guarantee that cannot be changed". (HANDLE).
