Abstract :
Democratic voting is a crucial and serious event
in any place, the current election scheme in any place, be it
a school college, or even a country is done through ballot
papers or using EVM. This process has many disadvantages such as transparency, low voter turnout, vote
tampering, lack of trust in electoral authorities, delay in
results, and above all security issues. So the growing digital
technology has helped many people's lives nowadays. The
concept of electronic voting is introduced to combat the
disadvantages of the traditional voting system. Electronic
voting is essentially an electronic means of casting and
counting votes. It is an efficient and cost-effective way of
conducting a voting procedure that is data-rich and realtime and requires high security. Nowadays, concerns
about the security of networks and the privacy of communications for electronic voting have increased. Thus, the
provision of electronic voting is very urgent and is becoming a popular topic in communication and networking.
One way to solve security problems is blockchain. The paper proposes a new blockchain-based electronic voting system that addresses some of the limitations in existing systems and evaluates some of the popular blockchain frameworks to create a blockchain-based electronic voting system. Because the blockchain stores its data in a decentralized manner, the implementation result shows that it is a
practical and secure electronic voting system that solves
the problem of vote forgery in electronic voting.
