Electoral Voting System Using Blockchain

ABSTRACT The credibility and clarity of electoral systems are vital for maintaining the public’s confidence in democratic governance. However, there are significant problems with traditional voting methods, including the possibility of fraud, a lack of transparency, and delays in results announcement and verification. This study addresses these enduring problems by putting forth a unique blockchain-based electoral voting mechanism. Blockchain functions as an immutable, decentralized digital ledger that can guarantee that every vote is safe, private, and open to public auditing. The suggested architecture uses smart contracts for automated and tamper-proof vote storage, incorporates robust cryptographic techniques for voter authentication, and uses consensus procedures for decentralized result verification. In terms of data security, system efficiency, and scalability, a blockchain-based solution outperforms current techniques, according to a comparison with traditional and electronic voting models. Practical issues including scale, accessibility for various demographics, and regulatory framework adaptation are also covered in the study. In the end, the results confirm that blockchain has the potential to transform electoral processes in the future by bringing in more dependable, transparent, and secure technologies.
