E VOTING SYSTEM

Project Title

E VOTING SYSTEM

Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject Summary

This project discusses the importance of E- voting and EVM machines. As we will see that the use of these machines is so simple and effective, they definitely have the potential to make the coming General Elections the most fair and successful in the history of Democracy of this nation. The malpractices that are rigging our present election system will be removed and most of all the percentage of voting may touch the unbelievably high level which is the real mark of any democracy.

Project Objectives

The basic idea of this project is to create an electronic voting machine that will help to eradicate defrauding of the manual voting systems and prior versions of electronic voting. The thesis looks into and proposes a system that includes multiple layers of verifications to ensure the reliability of the device. With the inclusion of biometric fingerprint sensor, each voter is entered into the system only after being recognized and checked with the given database of enlisted voters. Once the corresponding fingerprint is matched with the information provided, the voter will be allowed to proceed for choosing their preferred candidate from the panel of buttons. The final vote is then displayed onto a LCD for the satisfaction of voters. The proposed project displays transparency and also carries the feature of being autonomous during the course of operation.

Project Implementation Method

• The need to record information and to have the results available quickly. (Timeliness)
•  • The need to have a system that is accessible to all and easy to use. (Accessibility)
•  • The need to ensure secrecy of what takes place. (Secrecy)
•  • The need for voting to be undertaken seriously, after due deliberation. (Deliberation)
•  • The ability to ensure that each individual’s vote is recorded and counted accurately. (Accuracy);
• The need to guard against manipulation and interference with information once recorded. (Security)
• • The need to ensure that individuals cannot be impersonated. (Authentication)
•  • The need to verify what has taken place through the use of traceable information Trails. (Verifiability).
