Definitely a huge opportunity here @solarguy. We were actually involved in the last South African election, but not using the blokchain yet, hopefully next time. The election and voting process can easily be automated on blockchain technology. We were more involved from a analytics perspective, in using social media sentiment analysis to inform the various parties of interactions from the various social sites like twitter and facebook. SO we are well positioned for the next elections :)
