Traditional paper-based voting system for student organization leaders election has issues related to security, transparency, and trust. This research addressed these issues by implementing a blockchain on e-voting system utilizing smart contracts to ensure the security and transparency of the voting process. The system was developed using the agile software development life cycle (SDLC) methodology and was tested using black-box and system usability scale (SUS) method to evaluate its functionality and usability. Security testing was conducted through unit testing on the smart contract and block verification within the Sepolia network. The results showed that the decentralized e-voting system could prevent vote manipulation and detecting duplicate voters, as evidenced by the unit testing of the smart contract, which confirmed that recorded votes could not be manipulated and attempts to submit multiple votes were detected and rejected. Meanwhile, system transparency was demonstrated through direct verification using a block explorer, showing that the entire voting process and the smart contract code were publicly accessible and transparent. The system was successfully simulated on a small scale within a student organization, and usability testing using the SUS method was conducted with 30 respondents. The test resulted in a score of 72 points, indicating that the system was in the good category and was well accepted by users. Therefore, the decentralized approach in this e-voting system has been proven to enhance transparency and overcome the problems of security issues in the voting process.
