Toward a Compliant Token-Based e-Voting System with SSI-Granted Eligibility

In this paper we present a preliminary design for an e-voting system based on self-sovereign identities and built on the Algorand blockchain. The design keeps into consideration the basic properties of an e-voting system and also the EU recommendations. We use the Dizme framework for the management of the identities of the voters, which allows to keep secret the identity while certifying the right to vote, and we store the encrypted votes on the Algorand blockchain. Votes are decrypted only in the tally phase.
