Background Ensuring the security and trustworthiness of a digitized automated electoral process remains significant challenge in democratic systems. As digital voting systems are increasingly being investigated worldwide, ensuring integrity using robust measures is great importance. This paper presents simplified model to enhance by leveraging Blockchain technology context Oman’s system. The uses create secure trustworthy environment, addressing key vulnerabilities Methods research utilized quantitative approach, employing an experimental design methodology open-source software simulate Synthetic population data used operate these systems, while advanced biometric authentication technologies verify voter identities. leveraged ensure vote recording, with smart contracts authenticate voters securely record votes. Additionally, synchronous transactions executed for both registration processes, enhancing overall efficiency Results results show that enhances system, improving elections’ transparency reliability. performance evaluation focuses on efficiency, reliability, scalability metrics. Asynchronous improve processing time voting. Election administrators can manage, monitor, certify election results, Ethereum nodes decentralized verification process. Conclusion offers insights policymakers consider reforms, issues like integrity, fraud prevention, boost trust. A strong regulatory framework public awareness crucial successful implementation. Pilot projects needed assess Blockchain’s practical impact. Oman could lead global innovation technology, though infrastructure resistance challenges must be managed.
