Abstract
The world at present is facing a number of serious challenges in the face of persistent economic crisis, local conflicts and endless waves of refugees. All of the above are affecting secure access to and completion of peoples voting rights. The relevant technological solutions appear to have matured and have successfully responded to rigorous testing. The question that remains to be answered is how an e-government service such as e-voting can be successfully implemented within complex political environment such as Palestine. Palestinians have been scattered across the world since the late 1940s, making the Palestinian authority experience a serious difficulties in enabling its citizens to elect their representatives. The inspiration for this paper has been taken from the results of the analysis of 19 in-depth interviews with public sector, private sector and policy influencers.
