Abstract

In the current scenario the electronic voting on larger scales are done by using EVM’s (Electronic Voting Machines). These machines have buttons for selected candidates and the voter has to press the button corresponding to the candidate he/she has selected. The counting of votes is done by computers and the data is stored securely in the EVM’s. In this paper we have done a survey of already existing electronic voting systems and their implementation and working process. These systems have been successfully implemented and used for many important voting practices. But there are some problems and limitations to these electronic voting systems. We have studied those problems and limitations and proposed Blockchain Based E-Voting (BEV) that is a more secure way for electronic voting using blockchain. It helps to make e-voting systems more secure and reliable.
