Abstract

The methods used in the electoral process in many countries continue to be done in person, with votes written on paper. Such a model brings significant operational problems and high operational costs due to the requirements of secure elections, which must provide privacy, transparency, research and trust. By using encryption to encrypt data transmitted over network communication, communication between network nodes becomes more secure, preventing data from being read, modified or any incorrect information from reaching other nodes. Electronic voting is close to remote voting, where portable objects that are always connected to the Internet can be a anywhere, anytime voting mechanism. Therefore, Blockchains is a technology used as a distributed website. This technology is known for the popularity of Bitcoin cryptocurrency, as this cryptocurrency operates from the use of Blockchain as the main means of storing and managing transactions. The reason why this technology has been used as a database by many cryptocurrencies is that due to its implementation, Blockchains have a static resource, and with it is possible to guarantee the integrity of the database. These properties were exploited in many ways beyond normal spending. Several cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin were then developed for applications with requirements related to research and database security.
