An electronic voting system must address essentials such as mobility, efficiency, verifiability, and robustness. Jan and Tai presented an electronic voting scheme using IC cards in 1997, and Chang and Lee proposed a t-out-of-n electronic voting protocol in 2006. According to their different traits of t-out-of-n and IC-card-based protocol, we consequently proposed a novel version to integrate these two protocols in this paper. By adopting IC cards, the authentication performance can be effectively promoted. The security of our scheme is based on symmetric and asymmetric cryptosystems. Our proposed scheme not only confirms most of the essentials of the general electronic voting scheme but also prevents potential malicious attacks. Furthermore, the computation overhead of the proposed scheme is less than that of the related methods.
