And a deployment module in the election tool deploys a alliance chain in a group, or deploys the alliance chain or a public chain in a region, and brings the information aiming at the election person into the block chains respectively according to corresponding block chain nodes.
The election initiating module in the election tool generates a timestamp when initiating the voting transaction of the block chain, and records the timestamp to the block chain to obtain a credible timestamp.
The election initiating module in the election tool generates a random number when initiating the voting transaction of the block chain, and records the random number to the block chain to obtain a credible random number.
The invention has the advantages that:
the invention provides a block chain-based election method, which utilizes a mechanism that a block chain is transparent to public or all publications in a coalition, so that the election process result is transparent to the public, and data can not be distorted randomly, thereby ensuring the fairness and justice of election;
the voter privacy is protected, and meanwhile, which voter casts the vote can be found by tracing through electronic voting equipment such as an electronic voter and the like, so that data cannot be lost;
compared with the common paper voting, the electronic voting machine is convenient and quick to use, the process is long and invisible, the electronic voting machine is time-saving and labor-saving compared with the common voting machine, the election process is visible in real time, a lot of manpower and material resources are saved, and the occurrence of dark box operation problems such as invisible process and the like is also prevented.
