  A decentralized online petition system enables individuals or groups to
create, sign, and share petitions without a central authority. Using blockchain
technology, these systems ensure the integrity and transparency of the petition
process by recording every signature or action on the blockchain, making
alterations or deletions impossible. This provides a permanent, tamper-proof
record of the petition's progress. Such systems allow users to bypass
traditional intermediaries like government or social media platforms, fostering
more democratic and transparent decision-making.
  This paper reviews research on petition systems, highlighting the
shortcomings of existing systems such as lack of accountability, vulnerability
to hacking, and security issues. The proposed blockchain-based implementation
aims to overcome these challenges. Decentralized voting systems have garnered
interest recently due to their potential to provide secure and transparent
voting platforms without intermediaries, addressing issues like voter fraud,
manipulation, and trust in the electoral process.
  We propose a decentralized voting system web application using blockchain
technology to ensure the integrity and security of the voting process. This
system aims to provide a transparent, decentralized decision-making process
that counts every vote while eliminating the need for centralized authorities.
The paper presents an overview of the system architecture, design
considerations, and implementation details, along with the potential benefits
and limitations.
  Finally, we discuss future research directions, examining the technical
aspects of the application, including underlying algorithms and protocols. Our
research aims to enhance the integrity and accessibility of democratic
processes, improve security, and ensure fairness, transparency, and
tamper-proofness.
