In Switzerland, it is only done in few cantons and only up to 30% of the population.[1]
I have no idea how it is intended, but I personally interpret it like this:
- It is mostly an experiment so far.
- If it fails (thinking about exploitation), Switzerland does not lose a lot and just goes back to 100% paper-voting.
- It is a free service to other countries to show what e-voting can be in best-case.
- It does not show what could happen in worst-case.
- The riskiest part of this experiment is the interpretation.
what if they removed only 33% of the stops?
so per 3 stops, one is removed and the remaining were rearranged.
it might even happen that the new bus stop is closer to your house.
i agree, for the average person, the distance to the stop increases though.
