London mayoral candidate advocates blockchain-based voting to enhance electoral integrity

London mayoral candidate Brian Rose believes that implementing a blockchain-based voting system could significantly improve the integrity of the electoral process. In an exclusive interview with Cointelegraph, he expressed confidence in the technology's potential to address concerns related to human error and fraud. "The current British voting system is generally sound," Rose acknowledged. "However, when humans are involved in the process, there is always the possibility of mistakes or irregularities." Rose emphasized that a blockchain-based voting system could enhance trust and transparency in the electoral process. By leveraging the secure and immutable nature of blockchain technology, the system would provide a tamper-proof record of votes, eliminating the risk of manipulation or fraud. "An on-chain voting system would not only bolster public trust in the electoral outcome but also contribute to London's reputation as a global financial hub with robust crypto credentials," Rose stated. Previously on April 25, 2024, London mayoral candidate Brian Rose proposed distributing £100 ($125) worth of a new LONDON coin to every Londoner if elected.
