“…Decentralised proposals were explicit regarding the way they dealt with multiple votes, with the vast majority of them disallowing the practice. Some authors simply prohibit casting any votes after the first one, such as [101], [159], [161], [17] or [168], whereas proposals such as [152], [94] and [112] allow for multiple votes to be cast, but the system only considers the first one. In these examples, the uniqueness criterion was inferred from the system's characteristics, namely how the authors detailed how they dealt with multiple votes cast, whereas in other cases, the proposal was explicit regarding the implementation of such a criterion.…”

The modernization of voting methods is a dynamic area of research currently. In the past, innovation in voting methods was limited to the automation of steps in the process through mechanical means. This changed with the introduction of commercial cryptography in the 1970s, whose applications to voting triggered a new era in this research field. Researchers used the following years to apply tools derived from cryptographic methods to build increasingly secure, transparent, and practical electronic voting systems. Despite the effort, a true remote electronic voting system was never achieved with the technology available. The introduction of Bitcoin in 2009 brought much attention to the blockchain concept that supported it. This new data model offered new levels of transparency, data immutability, and pseudo-anonymity that made it attractive and useful to e-voting researchers. Soon after, articles detailing the first blockchain-based e-voting systems were published, and the research field entered a new era. This article presents a study on the evolution of research in electronic voting systems, following a systematic literature review methodology and a chronological evolution from the first systems that employed public cryptographic concepts up to blockchain-based proposals, with the objective of detailing the evolution of the technology as a whole, as well as all the elements, centralised and decentralised, created and used to implement voting systems.
