Smart Contract for Secure Voting

Objective:

To create a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof voting system using blockchain and smart contracts.

What is it?

A digital voting system where votes are cast, recorded, and counted using smart contracts on a blockchain, ensuring integrity and eliminating fraud.

Key Features:

Security: Votes are encrypted and stored immutably on the blockchain.

Transparency: Anyone can audit the process without revealing individual votes.

Anonymity: Voter identities are protected using cryptographic techniques.

Smart Contracts: Automate vote collection, deadline enforcement, and result calculation

Technologies Used

 Front-end Technologies

React.js / Vue.js / Angular – For building interactive web voting interfaces.

Web3.js / Ethers.js – To connect the frontend with the blockchain and smart contracts.

Backend Technologies (Optional)

Node.js / Express.js / Python (Flask/Django) – For building APIs, dashboards, or admin portals.

Firebase / MongoDB / PostgreSQL – For storing encrypted or off-chain data like voter lists (with proper privacy).

How it works:

Voters register securely (e.g., via digital ID).

Each voter receives a unique token or right to vote.

Voters submit their choice through a smart contract.

After the deadline, the contract automatically counts votes and declares results.

Benefits:

Prevents vote tampering and double voting

Removes the need for third-party verification

Enables remote and accessible voting

Reduces costs of traditional voting systems
