Paper Title: PureChain Based Voting System: A Cost Effective and Immutable Solution to Electoral Transparency
Conference Name: The 35th Joint Conference on Communications and Information (JCCI 2025)
Abstract: Election integrity in developing democracies like Pakistan is threatened by fraud and manipulation. Traditional voting systems suffer from transparency issues and are vulnerable to tampering. This study proposes a PureChain-based e-voting solution to strengthen electoral integrity, ensure voter secrecy, and avoid tampering by using PureChain's decentralized ledger technology, zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), and smart contracts to create a secure, transparent, and auditable electoral process. It addresses voter verification, record immutability, and cybersecurity concerns while considering Pakistan's implementation challenges regarding infrastructure and regulation.
