I think there is a niche for electronic voting for low impact decision making. Used as such it could actually make societies more democratic.

Elections that have the potential to shift the power structure of a state are not low impact decisions. Paper ballots being slow and labour intensive is a feature, not a bug for really high stake decisions like who is in charge of a nuclear arsenal for the next years.

The more I know about electronics and programming the worse I think the idea of E-voting is for such occasions.
