In Germany, a election must be equal, secret and comprehensible. (Hope I translated correctly: gleich, geheim, nachvollziehbar). One of the three will always fail in online voting systems. The obvious is always the comprehensibility, because the majority won't understand the software. That can only be sold by losing the secret vote, because then a vote is reasonable for anybody.
