A Novel Approach for e-Voting System Using Blockchain

With the inventions of new systems such as blockchain, the technological world gets new opportunities to develop new projects. The topic is relatively new hence the issues such as legal issues are hindering the growth of these technologies. In this paper, we are going to implement a thought experiment on Blockchain technology which is widely regarded as open-source to conduct a trial and error process for adopting a new voting system that could be used in elections and will have a blockchain base. The advantages of a Blockchain-based system are that it will provide security, reliability, and anonymity of a voter which are core fundamentals of hosting a free and fair election while and it can assist the government to widespread their narrative as there is no chance of cracking the hash stored. We have seen election commissions fail at various levels of security and privacy so having an alternative method will help in designing the blueprint of elections in many unreliable areas. This paper will first analyze and showcase the newly proposed method that is blockchain-based voting. How the blockchain is engineered and its benefits will be discussed in this paper, and current research being conducted to widespread this technology will also be discussed.
