Electronic voting system satisfying legal requirements has been a challenge to create for a long time. In the world of information technology, distributed ledger technology is a revolutionary technological advancement. Blockchain technologies have an infinite range of applications benefiting from sharing economies. We aim to evaluate the application of blockchain as service to implement distributed electronic voting systems, with this paper we try to provide all the requirements of building electronic voting systems and identifying the legal and technological limitations of using blockchain as a service for realizing such systems. In this project we propose to evaluate various popular blockchain frameworks which offer blockchain as a service, we then will present an innovative electronic voting system based on blockchain that addresses all limitations we came across in due course of our study. Through this project we will strive to evaluate the potentials of using distributed ledger technologies on an Electronic voting system using blockchains,it will study and formulate the basis of elections implementing a blockchain-based application which focuses on improving the security and decreasing the cost of hosting a nationwide election.
