Abstract

Voting is an utmost and legitimate process to reveal a caste’s counsel chiefly for a democratic country. Numerous voting methods have been using from the introduction time. But people nowadays want a safe, secure, and reliable procedure to vote. The more people experience a method, the more reliability they want. There are diverse reasons why electoral voting has supplanted the ballot voting system. An E-voting system is more reliable, less timeconsuming, environment-friendly, and reduces the probability of causing the human error. But no electoral voting is out of error and conflict. In this paper, we introduce a process that will help people find their propitiation and will not hamper the voter’s confidentiality and privacy. We propose a system where each voter will have an account. The voters will log in to the system using their user id and password. The system will send a One-Time Password (OTP) to the voter’s registered mobile number for more security. Voters will then select their desired candidate using their account before going to the voting booth. After choosing a candidate, voting power for that particular voter will be closed. But the candidate will not receive the vote until the voter appears in a voting booth and assert his authenticity by providing his biometric identity. The main objective of this method is to provide a neutral election where voters do not face any outer influences which may thwart their right to express their counsel. We are also concerned about the people who are not friendly to technologies and cannot select their candidates online. They can directly choose their desired candidate with the help of a polling agent after arriving at the voting booth.
