Abstract
Democracy in any country must have a transparent voting system that meets the people's needs to give the power to the right person. Furthermore, the existing traditional voting systems suffer from major drawbacks and missing the lack of security and transparency. This survey paper discusses the possible opportunity for applying BC technology in e-voting systems to improve the process of voting by tackling the issues of trustless, privacy, and security. This paper aims to evaluate different applications of blockchain as a service to implement distributed electronic voting systems. Some of them have been only a draft paper; others are implemented in the real world. A blockchain-based e-voting application improves security, privacy, and decreases the cost, even more, which can be achieved.
