Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of implementing the criteria for the technical effectiveness of democratic elections in the national electoral legislation. The main attention is paid to three criteria of the technical efficiency of the domestic electoral system: the accessibility of voting, the freedom of voting and the objectivity of the vote count. The authors substantiate the thesis that, in general, the normative support for the democratic nature of domestic elections contains a sufficient potential for technical efficiency. At the same time, significant potential for its improvement is recognized in the direction of greater ensuring the coincidence of electoral practice with electoral legislation. In this regard, it is noted that it is necessary to improve legislative norms designed to prevent serious violations of the voting procedure and distortion of the will of ordinary voters. It is also noted the need to improve the legal support for the use of the GAS Elections system when counting votes and when conducting remote electronic voting.
