West Virgina Blockchain Voting Reportedly Compromised

This isn't a problem with blockchain tech. There are places that are vulnerable to hackers like the front ends. When you use a very unsecured network with low security. Governments don't want to acknowledge public chains and solid projects developed with a strong decentralized community with 100s or even 1000s of nodes distributed across the globe.   

Learn the habit of testing everything many times over before releasing them to the world. When a voting system fails, it's not just about a small section but the whole election becomes a joke. So far I've seen some nice developments from the Enigma Project. I'm yet to dig super deep into it (I'm not even sure if I've got the technical knowledge to understand) What I can say is that centralized blockchains won't really bring the benefits of the tech to the masses.
