These dangers, directly linked to technology, affect the different phases of the electoral process, such as: the nomination of candidates, in which the collection of signatures for independent candidates or the realisation of primary elections can be done via applications that risk creating problems that affect the process; candidate and voter registration; voter information initiatives (voter education campaigns); the electoral campaign, impinging upon the free development of the voter’s will; political / campaign finance and its transparency; the voting process itself; vote counting and establishment of election results; the election dispute resolution process.
