VOTING !!!

Sierra Leone just ran the first blockchain-based election!

The citizens of Sierra Leone,a country of about 7.4 million people, went to the polls on March 7 but this time something was different: the country recorded votes at 70% of the polling to the blockchain using a technology that is the first of its kind in actual practice.The goal ultimately is to reduce voting costs by cutting out paper ballots as well as reducing corruption in the voting process.

The tech, created by Leonardo Gammar of Agora, anonymously stored votes in an immutable ledger, thereby offering instant access to the election results.
