This document discusses implementing a voting system through IP telephony. Key points include: 1. IP telephony equipment like phones, servers and gateways would be used to set up the system and allow voting through phone keypads or dedicated voting pads. 2. A voting server with a database would collect and count votes, ranking candidates based on vote totals. 3. Challenges include applying various voice and data network standards to a converged network and ensuring the same reliability as traditional voice networks. 4. Providing voting services through IP telephony could be profitable for service providers and beneficial for users through reduced costs.
