Pseudovote-CDOC

Creating pseudonyms for all ~1 million voters in Estonia

On clean Ubuntu 24.04 you can run the ceremony by:

sudo apt install git
sudo apt install python3-m2crypto python3-pyasn1 python3-pycryptodome python3-progressbar python3-fpdf python3-ldap
git clone https://github.com/infoaed/pseudovote-cdoc.git
cd pseudovote-cdoc
./ceremony.py

This will end with containers in con directory and quarantine_01234567890.cdoc in root.

During the ceremony following commands might be of use:

ls -1 con | wc -l
rm -r con && mkdir con
sha256sum voterlist.txt
du -h con
ls | xargs sha256sum

Create one pseudonym for each voter in voterlist:

  • Simple Python code for generating pseudonyms
  • Encrypt each pseudonym for a dedicated voter
  • Export encrypted pseudonyms for delivery
  • Provide instructions to participating in a poll
  • Do not store connection between voterlist and pseudonyms
  • Prove it as well as possible during the ceremony
  • Blackbox list of pseudonyms until the end of election

Similar to Uduloor and process described in a write-up.
