Voting via SMS?

Swissinfo: Voters go to polls armed with mobile phones

Switzerland, famous for its large number of referendums and popular democracy is experimenting use of SMS for the regular votes.

Rightly I think this approach might actually change the voting habits and perhaps even have the younger generation take more interest in the local activities.

I wonder if ever India could use this approach to make voting a bit more easier for the masses. Ah wishful thinking again….

    Is there a Asha Delhi chapter now ?  I am not affiliated to any Asha chapter now. The Berkeley one is too far and one in Davis/Sacramento is defunct :-(
