Online Voting Using Blockchain

Akash Kumar, Ashutosh Singh Dengri, Anjali Gupta, Lakshay Rajput

Abstract


Creating an online voting framework that fulfils the legitimate necessities of lawmakers has been really difficult task for quite a while. Blockchain technologies have been used to address all the issues underlying with electronic voting machines. It also provides the infinite number of applicants with the support to connect to the economic systems. The goal is to evaluate the use of blockchain as a service in voting systems and develop an all-new or revolutionary system called as "Online Voting Using Blockchain". It outlines the requirements for developing online voting systems and recognize its legal and technological challenges that come with using this technology as a service to implement it as a system. Begin by evaluating some of the most popular blockchain frameworks and new blockchain terms that provide blockchain as a service. We then propose a blockchain-based online voting system that addresses all of the limitations we discovered in the electronic voting system. This study looks at the possibility of distributed ledger technologies in general, as well as the electoral system and the implementation of a blockchain-based application that enhances security and reduces the election costs
