The Swiss city of Zug, known for its proactive support of the blockchain industry, is launching a voting pilot that will base both polling system and residents’ IDs on blockchain technology.
The pilot phase got started in November and now has over 200 residents signed up for the new service, according to the announcement.
By using their digital ID, local residents will be able to cast votes in the one-off blockchain polling pilot, though the city government indicated that the vote is a “consultative test” and the results will not be binding.
Over in Russia, Moscow’s municipal government announced in March that it was extending its use of a blockchain-based voting platform to the city block level.
And, in the same month, the U.S. state of West Virginia launched a voting pilot project for absentee voters in the military by using a mobile application powered by blockchain technology, while Sierra Leone also notably piloted the tech in a presidential election.
