US House of Representatives: Blockchain Email Voting System Requires Collaborative Mail and Other Election Observations

On August 25, the Cointelegraph announced that the US Postal Service (USPS) had recently filed a patent application for sending ballots using authentication tools such as blockchain. US Congressman Darren Soto from Florida's 9th District is excited about the future development. Soto has timely filed the US Postal Service's blockchain patent, but it's unclear whether the patent will work before the 2020 presidential election. The blockchain postal poll is US. He will call for a joint venture between the Postal Service and other government agencies monitoring the elections, Soto said. He believes the transition will start slowly, bringing new processes to areas where digital elections have started, like email voting for US troops joining other countries. Soto also believes the system can print evidence that voters vote based on the tools they use to vote.
