NemoVote has an integrated quality assurance system that ensures that every vote can only be summited once and not changed after that. After a vote is recorded in the voting server, the server sends a prompt to the respective voter indicating that the vote was recorded properly. The voter will immediately get a visual confirmation that their vote was properly recorded. If due to bad connection or other issues the vote is not properly recorded in the voting server, the voter will not get that confirmation but and error message and has to vote again.
