Electors
abroad are clearly a focus group that is of particular interest for those
countries that are considering the introduction of e-voting in a general
manner. At the same time, they are a target group that can be difficult to
include in e-voting for practical reasons. Other countries see a need to
introduce e-voting for their external electors but do not see the same urgency
for introducing e-voting for the internal electors. However, there is no
definite trend towards the introduction of remote e-voting, not even in the
countries where the first steps towards it have been taken.
