Blockchain for Democratic Voting:How Blockchain Could Cast of Voter Fraud
During a political elections campaign, citizens learn about candidates and decide who they support. Once this period is over, they go to vote for the candidate of their choice. However, we must question the reliability of our voting procedures and look at how technology can be used to make these procedures more secure. The application of Blockchain technology could prevent electoral fraud as it provides a clear record of the votes cast and avoids any risk of a rigged election. Furthermore, if Blockchain is incorporated into the electoral system, the State would no longer be an intermediary. Blockchain allows people to authenticate themselves with their personal data provided on the blockchain. Therefore, the incorporation of Blockchain into the election process would prevent electoral fraud and interference of external agents, such as the state attempting to manipulate the election results.
