Abstract
It has been difficult for a long time to create a safe electronic voting system that delivers the openness and adaptability that come with electronic systems while maintaining the fairness and privacy of present voting procedures. Several forms of electronic voting have been tried in place of current procedures to increase effectiveness and decrease errors. Achieving such systems, however, presents numerous difficulties. In order to increase the viability of electronic voting systems, blockchain is a new disruptive technology. This study lays forth a strategy for using blockchain to build voting systems with greater effectiveness. As part of our effort to create a voting system that supports peer-to-peer protocols and other elements, we also make use of some of the fundamental characteristics that blockchain technology has to offer.
