Secure Transmission of Ballots Using Blind Signature for Electronic Voting

In a blind signature system, the signer signs a digital document without being aware of the content of the message being signed. This technique is meant to ensure signature legitimacy while keeping the signer in the dark about the message's contents. Blind signatures can be used for secure ballot transmission in electronic voting (e-voting) to enhance privacy and ensure the confidentiality of voters' choices. The concept of blind signatures is particularly valuable in the context of electronic voting systems, where preserving voter anonymity is a crucial consideration. This work proposes an e-voting scheme and implements blind signatures using the Rivest-Shamir-Adleman algorithm for secure transmission of ballots. In this proposed e-voting scheme, the signer signs ballots only for the eligible voters using the blind signature technology. Without knowing the voters' identities, other parties can confirm the legitimacy of the ballots. Thus, this scheme preserves the ballot's authenticity while protecting voters' privacy. Voters can login and register using a token-based authentication method.
