Abstract

E-voting made the elections somewhat cheaper and convenient than the pen and paper method it was considered to be untrustworthy because anyone with physical control over the system could disable it and manipulate the results. Having a central electronic system is also paramount in the process, such as e-voting, result stream, and results as well as outcomes. The electorate is not fully protected owing to the ease with which voters can be reached. Moreover, it threatens free and transparent election, as well as the right to vote. Mobile voting presented in this study allows to get rid of the nuisance connected with traditional elections through the application of the relevant technology, blockchain which has become rather interesting for a number of applications because of the unique characteristics which make it different from the competitors. The purpose of this research is to design a distributed, not a centralized, municipal electronic voting system through BaaS for the protection of voter identities, the privacy of transferred data and the ability to check the outcomes of the voting process based on the principles of decentralization.
