Abstract:-
Building an electronic voting system that meets legislators' legal criteria has been a long-standing challenge. Distributed ledger technologies are a revolutionary innovation in the field of information technology. Blockchain technologies can be used in an unlimited number of ways to profit from sharing economies. All current electronic voting methods have a fundamental design problem. They're designed to be tightly controlled, which means there seems to be one source in charge of the code base, database, and system outputs, as well as the monitoring tools to ensure the results are accurate. Due to the lack of an independently verified output, these centralized systems struggle to gain the trustworthiness necessary by voters, either restricting voter participation or casting doubt on the election's declared results. The study seeks to use the cryptographic ledger as a safe transaction database to establish an immutable, verifiable, and secure online voting system. Voters will be able to independently audit the inclusion of their vote, as well in the election's overall outcome, using this public ledger, while knowing that the results cannot be altered due to the immutability of the Blockchain.
