Abstract : Over the years, there has been a increase in the usage of distributed ledger technology (DLT), such as blockchain. In the storage and sharing of personal information, privacy is a fundamental concern. Homomorphic en- cryption is a method of securely sending and storing private data between and inside computer systems. Homomorphic encryption has emerged as a potential solution , in which a client’s data is encrypted in such a way that some search and manipulation operations can be performed without the need for proper decryption . A lot of researchers have been working or trying to identify real-life usecases of Blockchain technology since peo- ple discovered its potential in several fields . As a consequence of this study, it was discovered that blockchain systems can help solve some of the issues that now plague election systems . In this study, we give a thorough survey of homomorphic encryption research papers or research articles that have been published in the blockchain based e-voting . The primary purpose of this exploratory research article is to assess the current state of blockchain-based voting research, as well as associated possible roadblocks , in order to forecast future trends.
