The present report does not intend to provide concrete and universal solutions for all problems that the use of the internet and social media might entail in all electoral processes. The particularities of each nation and each democracy would make it an impossible task. Instead, its purpose is to identify the most relevant legal problems caused by the use of those technologies, describe their logic and possible solution parameters, point out the shortcomings identified so far, and suggest a general set of principles and guidelines that might help to adapt democracy and its laws to the new technological realities. In this sense, the conclusion of this work resembles a roadmap to existing and future regulation and cooperation principles, rather than a handbook to solve all problems.
