Abstract

Electronic voting, often referred to as "e-voting," has gained popularity in recent years because it reduces the cost and time of counting, increases voter participation, and reduces human resources, thereby reducing fraud and increasing transparency. In this paper, an e-voting system is designed and implemented using symmetric DNA encryption. The proposed scheme consists of using DNA-XOR as secret sharing operator for multi-authority secret ballot elections which enables end-to-end vote verification. The transmitted data is divided into segments and converted into DNA sequences. The main contributions of the resulting system are our proposal for secret sharing between authorities via DNA cryptosystem which ensures that no single authority can compromise the integrity of the ballot without the approval of the other authorities and the proposal's computational and architectural scalability, which makes it simple to implement.
