Voting system are some of the use cases of blockchain and some other countries already using this technology and recently in Thailand an opposition party holds primary election on a blockchain backed by the Zcoin team. So there is no doubt that the new voting system for national election is powered by blockchain technology.
I am following blockchain from a time, but this aspect is totally new for me. I really didnt know abut this application of Blockchain. This is really a startling action taken and it will help this to grow.
