I&#8217;d fully support that if voters could verify a paper record of their vote,&#8221; she <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/VTeagueAus\/status\/1277496802573352961\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-component=\"externalLink\">tweeted<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But the Bill *forces* [the AEC] to implement something for both vision-impaired and Antarctic voters. Though it doesn&#8217;t explicitly mandate paperless Internet voting, it seems very hard to comply with otherwise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Teague was part of the group of researchers that last year poked holes in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/nsw-electoral-commission-claims-physical-separation-mitigates-swiss-voting-flaw\/\">Swiss Internet voting system<\/a>, which was the same system used by the NSW Electoral Commission&#8217;s iVote.<\/p>\n<p>iVote was purchased from Scytl Australia, a subsidiary of Barcelona-based election technology vendor Scytl Secure Electronic Voting, and is based on the system used by SwissPost.<\/p>\n<p>In March 2019, Teague and her colleagues, Sarah Jamie Lewis and Olivier Pereira,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/nsw-electoral-commission-claims-physical-separation-mitigates-swiss-voting-flaw\/\">found a flaw<\/a>&nbsp;in the proof used by SwissPost system to prevent electoral fraud.

Queries about the status of that sale should be directed to Scytl,&#8221; a spokesperson told ZDNet. &#8220;The NSWEC is monitoring the situation and, to date, it has had no impact on the use of
