Method for collecting data from electronic voting units

A method for collecting data from electronic voting units which are standing by to receive enabling commands, comprising the steps of: sending in parallel a vote opening/control command from a central logic unit to a plurality of peripheral logic units by way of first connection elements and to voting units by way of second connection means; storing the vote in the voting unit if the vote opening/control command is a vote opening command; setting the voting units to the mode for sending the stored vote; sending in succession, from each individual peripheral logic unit, a vote collection command; sending to the peripheral logic units a vote signal, from each one of the voting units in a preset time interval; transmitting the votes collected by the peripheral logic units to the central logic unit and to a computer.
