Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin has issued a personal Twitter alert about a newspaper that has misinformed his views on elections in West Virginia. Rumors are that the state will be the first to adopt online voting through blockchain technology.

During the mid-term elections in 2018, 144 military personnel were stationed overseas from 24 provinces. Through this new platform they could cast their vote through a smartphone. This is a first in the world.
The platform was first tested during the first general elections in April. During this test, a limited number of voters, including soldiers, could remotely vote via their smartphone.

Voatz, as the system is called, was originally developed to increase voter participation among military personnel.

Everything went smooth.
