Blockchain technology can be used in all areas of our lives because it is a transparent and reliable database. On the other hand, electronic voting systems are becoming an electoral system that has become widespread worldwide. As a result of the combination of electronic voting systems with blockchain technology, it is possible to perform the voting process more reliable and faster. In this study, the advantages of blockchain-based electronic voting systems were examined. A simple electronic voting system has been set up to better understand the voting system, and what is needed here is examined. Blockchain technology is very important to ensure the reliability of systems. This study shows that elections can be made more reliable by using a blockchain-based electronic voting system. As a result, this article allows the use of the new and increasingly popular blockchain technology in the electronic voting system.

Abstract


Blockchain technology can be used in all areas of our lives because it is a transparent and reliable database. On the other hand, electronic voting systems are becoming an electoral system that has become widespread worldwide. As a result of the combination of electronic voting systems with blockchain technology, it is possible to perform the voting process more reliable and faster. In this study, the advantages of blockchain-based electronic voting systems were examined. A simple electronic voting system has been set up to better understand the voting system, and what is needed here is examined. Blockchain technology is very important to ensure the reliability of systems. This study shows that elections can be made more reliable by using a blockchain-based electronic voting system. As a result, this article allows the use of the new and increasingly popular blockchain technology in the electronic voting system.
