Abstract

Voting is one of the cornerstones on which the democracy is based. The classic election process is still based on casting of marked ballot papers, which are then counted manually before announcing the results. This process has gone unchanged for thousands of years without major changes and is one of the last processes that is not yet in an electronic form. The authority leading such elections has a greater influence in the process, and the process is also more vulnerable to malicious entities that want to influence the election results. The goal of my Bachelor's thesis was to get to know the problems of electronic voting and to implement the solution of voting with the blockchain technology, which has many properties that can benefit such solution. An application must be implemented in a transparent manner and be easy to use so that that the process is simple for the voter and that it is trustworthy.
