The traditional paper-based voting is severely criticized after having found evidence of rigging in elections, leading to the uncertainty in the fairness of the election process. Traditional voting systems have severe issues in either user’s privacy or voting procedures. To counter these issues, e-voting systems have emerged as a potential solution. In this work, we proposed Internet e-voting protocol that fulfills the core properties like anonymity, verifiability, eligibility, privacy, receipt-freeness and fairness using dual signature. We prove the effectiveness and validity of our system using formal methods. A rigorous performance evaluation shows that our system clearly outperforms the existing state-of-the-art blind signature Internet e-voting protocols.
