The democratic processes taking place in the country require further improvement of the electoral system, which is one of the most important institutions for the formation and development of democracy. The formation of government bodies by popular vote is the basis of a democratic political system. The process of its passage depends on the use of new electoral technologies. Therefore, ensuring the impartiality and purity of the voting results is a task of great political importance.
One of the main features of the electoral processes of the 21st century is the technological nature, consisting of new terms - digital and mobile revolutions, digitalization, virtual space, electronic democracy, electronic government, electronic governance, electronic voting.
At the present stage of the development of electoral law, a rather promising direction is the introduction of electronic voting tools and complexes using digital technologies into the practice of conducting elections.

Electronic voting is a term denoting various types of voting, including electronic means of voting, as well as technical electronic means of counting votes.
