Secured Voting Using Blockchain

Democratic elections are the building blocks of a Democracy. In India elections play a huge role in deciding the government. But, during the years, the people are losing their hope in the elections conducted due to many allegations of bribery, identity theft in voting, repeated votes, false votes and many others. There is a need for establishing a highly secure election system to protect the integrity of the elections. A blockchain based voting system using multichain platform can address this problem and provide a highly secure voting system. At the same time, it also allows voters the ability to vote directly from their homes with an access to a PC. The blockchain technology is computationally secure and cannot be easily tampered with. With today's systems, successfully hacking a blockchain network is near impossible. This system makes the election process very simple and robust while at the same time saving a lot of resources. There is however an overhead of time associated with blockchain transactions. But that is a small price for a highly secure voting system.
