It's probably going to be harder to many than a more traditional web-based solution, but it would make LPI part of the pack defining the future (and reaping the benefits of doing so): https://developers.slashdot.org/story/17/12/30/1715210/blockchain-brings-business-boom-to-ibm-oracle-and-microsoft "Blockchain Brings Business Boom To IBM, Oracle, and Microsoft" About heliosvoting.org, I really cannot accept a solution that requires you to have a Google or Facebook account to be able to use it.
