Peruvians living abroad could vote online in the future, and would not need to do long and expensive trips, said todays specialists from Peru's National Office of Electoral Processes (ONPE).
According to Jorge Lazo, ONPE's Manager of Electoral Systems and Informatics, if they finally set this system up, then the Peruvians abroad will be able to vote using their own computers at home, from their office, or from any Internet cafe.
"We believe that this would be the best solution to reduce absenteeism, which reached 36% and 38% during 2006 general elections," he said.
He remarked that the process will be fast, easy, transparent, and will enable Peruvians abroad to vote.
In order to start this system, ONPE would open a register for Peruvians abroad, so that they can have a unique PIN with a username and password, which would guarantee the secrecy of their vote.
