Why I Invented the Separation of Three Powers Electronic Voting System

I started my career in 2000 in international trade, during the golden era of China's entry into the WTO. Business was booming. Like many others, I was too busy making a living to think about politics or public systems.

But in 2010, while living in a residential community in Shanghai, I discovered how broken property management in China really was: corrupt companies collected fees but did nothing. That led me to ask two simple but powerful questions:

  1. Where did our money go?

  2. How can scattered, diverse residents make effective decisions to protect our own interests?

Out of frustration and hope, I created a community management platform called JiaHeShun (家和顺) — JiaHeShun.com. It offered two core features: financial transparency and digital voting.
At first, I volunteered my system for free to my own community. Ironically, the homeowners' committee rejected it — they thought I had ulterior motives. I was disheartened but not defeated.

Through China's social media (like Weibo), I realized: this wasn't just my community's problem — it was a nationwide crisis. That's when I saw a business opportunity and a social mission. I began investing heavily in JiaHeShun, building a better product year after year. But investors didn't get it. They asked:

“Is there a successful case of this model in the U.S.?”

They didn't understand: this was original. No such system existed in America. Worse, in China's political climate, promoting concepts like transparency, voting, and citizen governance was risky. I once believed democracy in China could begin at the neighborhood level. But I failed. By 2016, after years of struggle, I lost hope.

In 2018, I emigrated to Melbourne, Australia with my wife and son. I didn't give up—I kept upgrading JiaHeShun.com.

Then came the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Like many others, I noticed the infamous "Biden curve." I had years of experience building local voting systems, and I wondered:

Could national elections be done entirely with electronic voting?

Only if two fatal flaws could be solved:

  1. How to prevent hacking of vote data?

  2. How to guarantee the result is fair and accurate?

I thought deeply for 6 days. Then, it clicked. The answer was Separation of Three Powers in the voting system:

  • Voter registration,

  • Data transmission,

  • Vote counting
    should each be handled by independent, hidden, distributed servers — just like checks and balances in democracy.

I wrote my first article on this idea on Nov 9, 2020, and quickly filed a patent.

The STPvote system solves both fatal flaws:

  • Hackers can't tamper vote data, because servers are distributed & hidden.

  • Candidates themselves calculate the result from the same data — if Trump and Biden both get the same numbers, the outcome is trustworthy.

Most people today still fear electronic voting. But that's because current systems are flawed.
With STPvote, we can eliminate human counting errors, detect every irregularity, and leave a complete digital trail.

I believe that one day, electronic voting will become the global standard for elections. And when that day comes, STPvote will lead the way.

If you are an investor or researcher who understands the future of elections, I would be honored to speak with you.

White Paper: Separation of Three Powers Electronic Voting System (STPvote)

  Chapter 1: Introduction — The Trust Deficit in a Democratic Crisis In recent years, elections in countries including the United States, Brazil, and across Europe have triggered widespread controversy. The core concerns can be summarized in two questions: • Are voting systems vulnerable to manipulation or hacking? • Are the results truly fair, transparent, and verifiable? Traditional paper-based voting offers a degree of traceability, but it faces significant limitations in efficiency, cost, and logistical feasibility—particularly during pandemics. Meanwhile, current electronic voting systems, despite their convenience, have provoked a deeper crisis of trust. Citizens and experts alike worry about vulnerabilities to hacking, insider manipulation, and the opacity of vote data. In this context, building an electronic voting system that is both efficient and universally trusted has become an urgent technical and political imperative. The Separation of Three Powers Electro...

STPvote: Revolutionizing Democratic Elections with Separation of Three-Power

Image
Introduction With the rapid development of information technology, electronic voting has become a key tool for improving the efficiency of democracy. However, traditional voting methods face challenges due to resource wastage (estimated by Smith, 2021 to increase costs by 15%-20%) and high labor costs, while existing electronic voting systems such as Voatz and Estonia's i-Voting still suffer from hacking attacks, lack of transparency, and anonymity issues (Jones & Lee, 2023). This article proposes an innovative electronic voting system, the "Three-Power Separation Electronic Voting" (STPvote, patent application number 2022201573), developed by inventor Bob Li over 15 years, aiming to reshape global elections through a three-module independent architecture and advanced technology. System Design STPvote draws on the principle of three-power separation from political science, designing three independent modules to ensure data security and checks and balances: Regist...

美国联邦选举电子投票制度框架与实施方案

基于“登记—传输—计算”三权分立原则 作者：Bob Li 一、总体原则 本方案提出一种美国联邦大选的电子投票制度框架，核心思想是建立 登记（Registration） 、 传输（Transmission） 、**计算（Computation）**三权分立的架构，实现三个基本目标： 公正性 ：保证投票过程和计票结果公开、公平、可验证 安全性 ：通过分布式与独立服务器结构，有效抵御黑客攻击 易用性 ：为选民提供简单高效、现场与远程兼容的投票体验 这可能是保障美国大选公正性的 唯一可行制度框架 。 二、为什么选择电子投票 很多人一听到“电子投票”就直接否定，认为它“不安全”或“不公正”。事实上，这是一种误解： 减少人工错误 ：电子投票可以最大限度降低人工计票失误 降低操纵空间 ：减少从投票到计票的中间环节，降低人为干预 证据可追溯 ：所有投票数据、行为记录均留痕，合法与非法行为都可溯源 换句话说，电子投票不但 更高效 ，还 更可验证 。 三、安全与防作弊机制 1. 防黑客攻击 各市政府服务器与联邦电子投票服务器分离 黑客必须同时突破多层服务器，攻击难度极高 每一次入侵尝试都会被记录，留下取证依据 美国国会可制定专门刑法，对干扰大选的黑客实施重罪 2. 防止参选人作弊 所有参选人、媒体、研究机构从同一API获取 相同投票数据 各方可独立计算并相互交叉验证 透明的数据流动减少了单点操纵的可能性 四、三权分立的制度架构 1. 市政府网站： 登记权 审核并登记选民基本资料：姓名、性别、出生日期、保密问题、邮箱等 公开辖区总居住人数、登记选民人数、预计现场与邮寄投票人数 所有登记信息 只保存在市政府服务器 ，不上传至电子投票系统 2. STPvote电子投票网站： 传输权 负责发放 Voting Pass （投票凭证） 提供API接口，将投票信息实时传输至各方服务器 不保存、不计算任何投票结果 ，仅承担数据中转职责 3. 参选人及独立机构服务器： 计算权 各候选人、媒体、研究机构独立建立服务器 通过API实时接收投票数据 独立计算选票，并相互验证，防止任何单方操纵 五、投票流程设计 （1）登记阶段 市政府通过API接口从电子投票网站...
