Limitations of blockchain technology in voting system

While current election systems are far from perfect, Internet- and blockchain-based voting
would greatly increase the risk of undetectable, nation-scale election failures. Online voting
may seem appealing: voting from a computer or smartphone may seem convenient and
accessible. However, studies have been inconclusive, showing that online voting may have
little to no effect on turnout in practice, and it may even increase disenfranchisement. More
importantly, given the current state of computer security, any turnout increase derived from
Internet- or blockchain-based voting would come at the cost of losing meaningful assurance
that votes have been counted as they were cast, and not undetectably altered or discarded.
As any technology has its own weaknesses the same way blockchain has disadvantages in the
sphere of elections. We focus on one of the main problems of blockchain - security.
The use of blockchain technology in elections raises a slew of unsolved problems. Will
existing innovations be leveraged to apply blockchain technology, or will a new one be
required? When will a blockchain-based voting technology with verified security be
developed?
If an attacker has more computational power than the rest of the network, he or she can
change or create bogus blocks. Assailants can include hackers, user groups, and even the
Central Election Commission.
Another issue is the development of processing power to support such an infrastructure for
the implementation of blockchain technology in elections with over 75 million voters.
Thus we made the conclusion that there are large technical problems with the implementation
of blockchain system in elections.
