Abstract:
E-petition is a relatively new tool for expressing community demands and influencing on the legislative
process. An issue of voting falsifications detection is rarely considered in e-petition analysis reports.
Within this research, an illegal petition falsification service has been examined and some methods of
voting fabrication detection have been suggested and implemented in mobile app. To illustrate the
discussed techniques, some suspicious activities regarding two popular petitions to the president of
Ukraine were detected.
