In Colombia, one of the challenges of the legislative branch y to upgrade the legal measures for electoral progress and the modernization of the constitutional rules that govern the electoral process in all its stages, and in which the launching of electronic voting has an important place. The rules that govern the Electoral System in Colombia are in the Constitution, its reforms, the laws and the electoral code (Decree 2241 of 1986). To the rules set forth in the original text of the 1991 Constitution, guiding principles have been added that should guide the organization and functioning of political organizations. All these new figures have been submitted to apply with the rules of an electoral code that is not consistent with the constitutional changes, among which we highlight the mandate of the implementation of electronic voting. The implementation of electronic voting in Colombia has the challenges of the modernization of the electoral process in Colombia, the political will of the major parliamentarians, the economic and financial support of the executive power, the training of citizenship and its confidence in the process and electoral authorities. In the present work is done an analysis of the electronic vote and the challenges for its adaptation taking into account the rules on the elections and the conformation of the political power in Colombia.
