Some embodiments described herein relate to an apparatus including a registration module and a vote module. The registration module can generally be operable to register a user device and/or a user. The vote module can generally be operable to receive, validate, and/or tally votes from the user device. The registration module can receive a request for registration including registration identification information. The user of the user device can be authenticated against a voter-authority database. An authentication code for validating the user device can also be received or assigned. After registration, the vote module can receive a signal representing a vote from the user device and identification information. The user device can be validated by receiving the authentication code. The user of the user device (i.e., the voter) can be validated by receiving voting identification information and matching the voter identification information to the registration identification information. |
