    Highly unlikely. For all intents and purposes it is impossible to create any system, that is anyonymus and trustworthy. And in voting one is exactly as important as the other. If you tried to make electronic voting, keep in mind, that ANY DEVICE in the chain that runs even microcode, or has any form of firmware is suspect. Better cryptography almost makes things worse.
