First Globals are the generation most likely to say “yes” when asked if they would be more likely to vote if they could vote online rather than in person -- 41.2% percent of First Globals say yes, compared to 33.3% of those 30-49, 28.2% of those 50-64, and 21.5% of those over 65.
As all generations become more familiar with the Internet, are we likely to see the percentages of those saying “yes” increase in all age groups, or will Internet voting continue to be preferred only by the young? And is there any chance of online voting ever becoming a reality, or would it be too prone to glitches or too unlikely to be understood or used by some voters?

I think that internet voting will continue to be preferred only by the young, and even then I don't think it will catch on. Despite all the glitches we see with conventional voting, I think the major problem with online voting is how much easier it would be to hack into the system or impersonate someone else.
