Abstract

Voting is absolutely important in a democratic society as it gives people a right and a chance to express their voices and opinions. Regardless of whether it is a national election or an internal business decision, a fairness voting process must be uphold. However, there are some situations where the losing party might use electoral fraud as a controversy and disagree with the results. In this research, blockchain technology is proposed to be used to create a secure e-voting system. Blockchain allows digital information to be recorded and distributed, but not edited. Hence, by protecting the anonymity of the vote details, this small piece of high-value data would be stored in the blockchain to make sure it is immutable. Ultimately, the proposed e-voting system is able to avoid any fraud or manipulation.
