Anonymity

In the virtual world, it is impossible to be totally anonymous while still
ensuring that one person can only vote once. Because at one moment or another
you need to link a vote to a person.

In the physical world this connection is lost in the voting box. But on
internet everything can be traced, no matter what you do you can never be
totally certain that a relation is lost.

So to have anonymity a scheme can be constructed using trust. Trust that a
voter can have into a third party of *his* choice. It is a trustee who will
vouch for the voter's reinscription on the electoral list using a pseudonym.

Thus you have two identities, the real person, knwown and accounted on the
electoral list, but unable to vote because she is marked as anonymous. And a
pseudonym.
