A woman sits on February 28, 2011 in Tallinn in front of a computer to vote in the Estonian general election. Data showed on March 3 that a record number of Estonians cast on Internet ballots in the Baltic state's general election, still the only parliamentary poll in the world with an online option. Although the general election is on March 6, Estonians who did not want to turn out in person had the right to cast Internet votes via a secure system between February 24 and March 2. Their confidential ballots -- which can be sent from any computer provided the user has downloaded special software and logs onto a secure site with an encoded ID card -- will be counted on election day just like the paper equivalents.
