Securing the E-voting system through blockchain using the concept of proof of work

The governance of most of the country depends on the election system. Almost all countries follow the voting system in the election process and based on which government has decided. In the past, voting was done manually or through ballot boxes, and many countries still followed this pattern. But nowadays, the E-voting system has come into existence, and they are considered to be fast as they generate results quickly. The major drawback of an E-voting system is the security features, and to overcome this situation and many approaches are developed to enhance the security features. In this paper, the Blockchain approach will be implemented to improve the security features of the Electronic-voting system using the concept of proof of work. Flask framework is used for the analysis purpose, and the evaluation parameter used for the validation of the models is security analysis and legal issues. Blockchain consumes so much power during the computation, so the paper has also discussed about the computing cost.
