Voters trust you with their political views. Poll City protects that trust with cryptographic guarantees.
The promise
When a voter answers a poll on Poll City:
Their identity is converted to a one-way SHA-256 hashOnly the hash is stored — never their name, email, or user IDThe hash cannot be reversed to find the voterThey receive a receipt code to verify their vote was countedWhat this means
**Campaigns see only totals** — you see 48% Yes / 52% No, never which voter said what**Poll City can't see votes either** — our engineers can't reverse the hash**Verification is possible** — voters enter their receipt at /verify-vote to confirm inclusionFor voters
