A Ruby tool to generate tokens for voters based on delegate counts for online elections and then validate those tokens when counting votes

• Ruby
• GNU Make (optional but recommended)

Clone this repo from Github

git clone https://github.com/hbiede/Voter-Tokens.git
cd Voter-Tokens

Update data/delegates.csv with the names of groups/individuals and how many tokens should be generated for each. The header for the column with the group/individual must be school, chapter, organization, or name. The header for the column with the number of votes must be delegate, vote, or voter. Plurals of the approved headers also work (eg. voters is allowed).

To generate PDFs of your organizations' passwords (one per organization), modify pdfs/voting.tex. This file must be valid LaTeX. PDFs can be disabled by modifying gen_tokens.rb so that generate_pdfs = false and reenabled by returning it to true.

ruby gen_tokens.rb data/delegates.csv data/tokens.csv

Download the CSV of your ballots to data/votes.csv and then run the following command:

ruby vote_parser.rb data/votes.csv data/tokens.csv
