Voting is a very crucial system that determines a leader or helps to make a decision. So, it is required to have fair voting so that fair and important decisions can be made. Now, there are many factors that hamper fair voting and to solve them; blockchain technology can be used. How? Let’s see:
Ensuring Fair Democratically Decision
We all know voting is used so that a leader can be elected. At the same time, voting is done in an organization or country or any institution so that a decision can be made. But fair election or decision-making is compromised when the process lacks factors like reliability, trust, or if fraud happens. But, blockchain voting makes sure that no fraud happens or election can be continued with reliability and full trust.
A place for No Fraud
One of the major problems in voting and elections is that the votes are stolen, and many parties complain that voting is done with fraud, which means some fraud happens, like the ruling party has stolen their vote or they have voted multiple times. But if blockchain technology is used, there will be no chance for these types of fraud. That is because blockchain technology will make sure that the voting is done properly and that no one has voted multiple times. And it’s not possible to steal votes because once the vote is gone in the blockchain, there is no way to remove or alter that.
Transparency
The traditional voting system has no transparency. That is because no one can tell who got the most votes unless the authority tells them. Here the problem is if the authority is corrupted, then the voting is fraud then. But, blockchain technology will make sure that no one can fraud the election or voting. That is because with the public blockchain voting system, every voter will be connected to the voting platform, and they all will be able to see the data on who gets the majority of the votes, and that’s why there is no chance of fraud. At the same time, because no one can alter the results, there is no chance to question this voting method.
Privacy
One of the most concerning things in the voting process is privacy. Now, the authority has a privacy method so that no one can see who voted who, and privacy can be maintained. But the method has not very satisfactory, and people can be hampering that method. Many reports in many countries show that people are beaten and threatened because they have voted on a particular person. But blockchain technology will solve this problem. That is because now you will be able to vote as an anonymous user, and no one will be able to know who has voted who.
Easy Voting
If blockchain technology is implemented in the voting system, then there will be no trouble voting. That is because you will be able to vote with the help of your identification number, computer, and internet. At the same time, you won’t need to go to the voting booth.
