Elegant Techniques and Methods for Blockchain-Powered Electronic Voting Systems

Abstract

The integration of the blockchain technology into electronic voting systems is an innovation that has gained popularity due to the issues prevailing with the conventional voting methods. The purpose of the work is to provide a thorough explanation of the design and execution of the blockchain-based electronic voting system, emphasizing the system’s significance in revolutionizing global electoral procedures. This study explores various blockchain consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT), analyzing their relevance in e-voting systems. Additionally, the paper investigates challenges related to scalability, interoperability, and regulatory compliance, proposing innovative solutions to address these complexities.
