A Competent and Accurate BlockChain based E-Voting System on Liquid Democracy

In order to avoid the demerits of Direct Democracy (DD) and Representative Democracy (RD), recently a democratic reform called Liquid Democracy (LD) was introduced which is a combination of DD and RD that gives the people full decisional control either by voting directly or by entrusting their voting power to a representative for some political ideologies or bills. Our work attempts to study the democratic models based on accuracy and competence parameters. Further a liquid democracy voting protocol is proposed and implemented on a block chain based distributed ledger which is capable of fighting attacks of integrity and non-repudiation while ensuring authenticity of the votes. This system would be transparent thus ensuring people about the legitimacy of their delegation of votes and direct votes. This is a big step up from the current existing system of EVM’s that do not guarantee this level of security.
