I'll preface this by saying that I'm not a blockchain expert, but from the comfort of my own armchair I consider that the main benefit over a regular SQL database is the fact that you don't need to make it secret and protect it.

What are you needing to make secret or protect?

Look at all the repositories up on github that are doing exactly this. I don't know why you would need to store voting results as well-ordered, but if you wanted to it's easily possible.
