Abstract: In modern era of digitalization, the need for secure and transparent electoral processes has become paramount. Traditional methods used for voting have challenges like transparency for user, ensure safety and accessibility. Blockchain technologies deals with such problem, it is a prominent solution to these problems. This abstract presents idea of smart and decentralized voting system using blockchain, which transforms election process by utilizing the decentralized and unchangeable characteristics of blockchain technology. This proposed system employs distributed ledger on a blockchain network to store and verify voting transactions. Voters are provided with a secure digital identity and access to the voting platform, which utilizes cryptographic techniques to safeguard the privacy and authenticity of their vote. Blockchain ledger records each vote as a rigged-free transaction, makes it almost impossible for unauthorized parties to manipulate the results.
The blockchain technology makes sure that there remains transparency and audibility for verifiable and trustable election result. It provides real-time access to the results for all stakeholders, increasing the integrity of the election process. Furthermore, the process can facilitate remote voting, thereby increasing accessibility and participation, especially for geographically distant or disabled voters. This abstract highlights the advantage benefits of a smart and decentralized voting system using blockchain, like enhanced security, transparency and accessibility, while acknowledging the importance of addressing challenges related to identity verification, scalability and user friendliness. Adoption for such a system has capability of reshaping such methods in which election is held, encourage belief and assurity in the democratic system.
