The Bell Industry Newsletter - Jason is on the Editorial Board
IVTA Internet Voting Technology Alliance, instigated by SafeVote to create an IETF-type standards organisation. Hasn't been particularly active.
SafeVote The most open of the corporate Internet Voting suppliers.
GNU The grand-daddy of all Free Software projects, of which GNU.FREE is now a part. Truest to the Free Software philosophy.
OpenVote An organisation that is working to envagelise Free Software in the American electoral system.
Smart Initiatives Initiative A long running project to bring the Californian petition project into the digital age and thus open up the democratic process.
Rebecca Mercuri's E-voting page Generally an unmoveable sceptic of electronic voting but she offers some excellent and though-provoking questions on here site.
Election.com The big daddy of the new wave of Internet Voting companies. They do not disclose any meaningful information about how their system works. They launched just at the right time to beat the downturn and buy several old-school voting services companies.
VoteHere.net Another big, new wave, Internet Voting player who have been reasonably open about their technologies however they are flawed due to their dependence (like Election.com) on a browser interface.
Lorrie Faith Cranor THE page for Internet Voting links, Lorrie has also done work on an voting system herself.
CalTech/MIT The words "jumping", "on" and "bandwagon" come to mind here. After the Flordia vote debacle MIT and Caltech launched a voting project to develop a wonderful Internet Voting system. They may well do so but for now their page is pretty empty.
