BBVS - Blockchain Based Voting System

Any democracy must have an open voting
process that satisfies the needs of the populace to give the
appropriate individual the power. Additionally, the
traditional voting systems currently in use have
significant flaws and lack security and transparency. It
has long been difficult to create a safe electronic voting
system that provides the transparency and flexibility
provided by electronic systems, while maintaining the
fairness and privacy of present voting schemes. In this
project, we assess a blockchain-based implementation of
distributed electronic voting systems. It addresses some
of the well-known blockchain frameworks with the aim
of building a blockchain-based electronic voting system
and presents a novel electronic voting system based on
blockchain that tackles some of the shortcomings in
existing systems. In particular, we evaluate the potential
of distributed ledger technologies through the
description of a case study; namely, the process of an
election, and the implementation of a blockchain-based
application, which improves the security and decreases
the cost of hosting a nationwide election.
