Blockchains will remove one critical part of elections: secret ballots.
Considering all the pure hater aims at all republican supporters, including those who contribute to campaigns, the secret ballot is incredibly important to preventing people from going to jail for their political views. What happened at Mozilla can happen because they are a private non-profit and can do what they want, but do we want this to happen to regular citizens for expressing their political rights in a representative democracy?
The flip side, this election has seen larger election fraud combined with voter fraud, than we've seen since 2000 or JFK (and any mention of it gets you a nice little Orwellian Ministry of Truth label on your post on FB/Twitter/Reddit/etc.) It's so egregious and I wrote full post on it for those who are interested:
Our elections have always been a farce. In the past two decades, we still don't have open source election software that can be inspected, and we still don't have basic election transparency.
