Summary: | Digitization of a secure electoral system capable
of ensuring fairness and privacy has been a long-standing
challenge for a variety of reasons. One is the system's reliance
on a third-party organization to manage and verify election
results, rendering it insecure. There is a possibility that data will
be altered during the election process. As a result, a
decentralized e-voting system application capable of verification
will be developed in this work using blockchain technology. The
Ethereum network and the Truffle framework will be used to
implement smart contracts as self-executing electoral
agreements. The Ganache (local blockchain) network design
demonstrated that the prototype is capable of recording every
voting transaction on the network without the use of a central
database. The voter can verify the election result by inspecting
each voting transaction on the local blockchain. The proposed
design will ensure that all voting transactions are stored in a
decentralized database, ensuring that no administrative control
over the ballot is exercised |
