A Robust Blockchain Assisted Electronic Voting Mechanism with Enhanced Cyber Norms and Precautions

Abstract

Voting is the primary right to every citizen and that should be loyal enough to select a correct leader to the respective country. Every person has the duty to choose the proper leader for their nation by exercising their fundamental right to vote. When voting at a polling place that uses paper ballots, citizens must be present in order to deposit their vote. The vast majority of people throughout the world has neglected this need and has avoided doing their civic responsibility. In these cases, electronic voting systems are generally viewed as a viable option. The challenge here is protecting voters' privacy and ensuring their votes get to the right people. This study presented Blockchain Assisted Enhanced Cyber Norms (BAECN), a revolutionary electronic voting system that ensures voters' ballots are cast accurately and without delay. One possible answer is Blockchain technology, which uses a distributed ledger in which many people share ownership of the data. The Bitcoin protocol, also referred as the decentralized Banking network, has incorporated Blockchain technology. To perform a transaction or carry out a transaction over the Blockchain network, gas is the charge that must be paid. One kind of voter fraud in electronic voting systems can be mitigated by the use of Blockchain: the redistribution of voter registration data. The proposed methodology, on the other hand, offers a revolutionary online voting mechanism built on Blockchain technology, which fixes all the issues that were found. This research describes the findings of a real-world use of Blockchain technology implementation of a smart-contracts application that increases election security while also lowering associated costs.
