Key Facts: Blockchain technology can change the dynamics of elections, instilling trust into the voting process. Expanse has developed a voting system prototype that eliminates the possibility of vote “rigging.” This innovative voting dApp demonstrates an easy, accurate and tamper-proof method to employ for future elections world-wide. November 1, 2016, WASHINGTON, NC. – The Expanse Project, Borderless.tech, announces the development of a new blockchain-based voting platform with the potential to change the dynamics of future elections. It provides a facility for voting on an immutable blockchain, storing the votes forever, tamper-proof, all around the world. The brainchild of Expanse co-founder and lead developer, Christopher Franko, this platform is community-managed. Expanse runs on a decentralized application platform designed to allow more efficient mining and enabling dApp developers to create more powerful applications and innovations. “Election night is coming soon for the U.S., so now is a great time to talk about the advantages of voting using the Expanse blockchain,” Said Franko. “The current voting systems people use are archaic and have absurdities like ‘hanging chads,’ with people counting and recounting. The results continually come into question, and all indications are that the results of this year’s U.S. presidential election will be particularly dubious.” With a true identity system to be attached later, Expanse has prototyped a nearly perfect voting system. One person, one vote—everyone can vote easily. If anyone were to cheat, that cheat would also be recorded on the blockchain to ferret out later. This is a simply a situation where the potential of Expanse is totally superior to any previous centralized systems for voting.

While there is no identity system attached to this […]
