E-Business Library > Estonia: The E-State Leads the Way on E-Voting

[Information Politics | Home] This article in the EU Observer exploring Estonia’s approach to e-voting states: “though pilot e-voting projects had already been carried out at local levels in the UK and Switzerland, Estonia leaped to the forefront of the e-voting race in October 2005 when it held the world’s first nation-wide binding local elections using the system. In March of next year, it’ll chalk up another world’s first when it holds national parliamentary elections using e-voting.”

So attention now shifts to the follow-on conference in Tunisia in 2005. Perhaps in response to the criticism expressed by human rights groups about Tunisia as a venue, the speech read by Tunisia's foreign minister at the closing session of WSIS-1 was particularly gracious in its invitation to civil society groups to participate in WSIS-2: "I also would like to lay particular emphasis on the role that we hope will be assumed by the components of civil society and the representatives of the private sector," the minister said on behalf of President Ben Ali, "so that they contribute, with their customary sense of initiative and creativity, to coordinating and unifying efforts with governmental parties during the preparation of the Tunis Summit." See Tunisia Online for the full text of his speech.
