I've been doing some research on how Blockchain systems could be used for voting.  I think Blockchain offers some unique benefits for the storage and collection of votes.  I've read through some of the content on followmyvote and also found these apps being built by the BOScoin  people https://www.boscoin.io/?page_id=20

They seem to be building two applications, one where people vote on celebrities as a way to get people into the tech and test it with a user base.  The second is an application allowing users to place stake into decision making systems.  Both seem to be exactly the kinds of tests we need to begin looking at putting voting on the blockchain.  Has anyone else looked at BOSCoin?  Howabout other blockchain based voting systems?

Could these kinds of technology really change the way democracy works?
