  • Voting system to prevent fraud using blockchain technology
    Patent number: 11386437
    Abstract: A voting system comprising at least one voting machine comprising: at least one voting machine processor. The voting machine processor performing voting machine operations comprising: initializing a vote blockchain with a vote blockchain genesis block. The vote blockchain genesis block comprising a voting machine identifier and a voting machine identifier hash value; storing the vote blockchain in at least one voting machine memory; iteratively, for a plurality of voters: receiving a signal indicating at least one vote made by a voter; creating a data structure comprising the at least one vote and a hash value of a preceding block; determining a new block hash value of the data structure; appending a new block comprising the data structure and the new block hash value to the vote blockchain; and storing the vote blockchain in the at least one voting machine memory.
