Towards Blockchain-Based E-voting System

Abstract

This paper proposed an Electric voting (E-voting) model that ensures security, privacy and transparency. Our approach uses blockchain method, a distributed ledger technology where data are shared and distributed into a network. Blockchain system offers transparency, decentralization, irreversibility and reduces the involvement of intermediaries which is crucial for an election process. An optimized algorithm is proposed for blockchain based e-voting system. An internet of things (IOT) based system is designed to exchange data from e-voting devices to the nodes. Moreover, we proposed several possible techniques and improvements for voting scenarios.
