DEVOTE: A BLOCKCHAIN BASED E-VOTING SYSTEM WITH VOTER ANONYMITY USING UNIQUEBLENDID

Abstract

The evolution of technology has sparked significant interest in transforming traditional voting into efficient, secure online systems.This study introduces a novel approach that enhances voter privacy and data security by utilizing a UniqueBlend ID algorithm to generate unique identifiers for voters, obscuring Aadhar numbers and preventing identity disclosure.Blockchain technology is integrated to enhance transparency, eliminate fraud, and create an immutable voting record.However, integrating decentralized applications (dApps) with legacy web2 systems presents challenges in data storage and retrieval.To address these issues, this research presents Optima, an interface that simplifies data segregation between web2 and web3 storage systems using a JSON-based structure.Optima optimizes storage efficiency, minimizes gas fees, and reduces development overhead, allowing developers to focus on application logic.This streamlined data segregation approach significantly improves the efficiency and security of online voting, ensuring voter anonymity and maintaining the integrity of the voting process.
