Abstract : The project is mainly aimed at providing a secured and user friendly Online Voting System. The problem of voting is still critical in terms of safety and security. This system deals with the design and development of a webbased voting system using fingerprint and aadhaar card in order to provide a high performance with high security to the voting system. The proposed Online Voting System allows the voters to scan their fingerprint, which is then matched with an already saved image within a database that is retrieved from aadhaar card database of the government. The voting system is managed in a simpler way as all the users must login by aadhaar card number and click on his/her favorable candidates to cast the vote By using biometric fingerprint it provides enough security which reduces the dummy votes.
? The Existing System of Election is running manually. The Voter has to Visit to Booths to Vote a Candidate so there is wastage of Time.
? The voting system previously being used by the Government is a paper based system, in which the voter simply picks up ballots sheets from electoral officials, tick off who they would like to vote for, and then cast their votes by merely handing over the ballot sheet back to electoral official.
? Some of the existing systems are:
i. Paper-based voting
ii. Direct recording electronic voting machine
iii. Punch card
? The main problem with such systems is that despite using various security techniques they won’t be able to manage such a huge amount of data that they may encounter during election periods their system is online and they may face congestion during casting votes.
? But Electronic voting systems suffers from various drawbacks such as time consuming, consumes large volume of paper work, no direct role for the higher officials, damage of machines due to lack of attention, mass update doesn’t allows users to update and edit many item simultaneously etc.
? These drawbacks can overcome by Online Voting System.
• This Online Voting System will manage the Voter’s information by which voter can login and use his voting rights.
• There is a DATABASE which is maintained by the ELECTION COMMISION OF INDIA in which complete data of voter with complete information is stored.
• At the time of registration voter will be asked for this: Full name, age, aadhar card no, mobile no. email id, finger prints and verified the details by administrator.
• Then voter will be authenticated, and he can give vote from one of the candidate from the list.If voter already has AADHAR Id then he/she don’t need to register, else before voting he/she need register himself/herself in AADHAR database.
? Online Voting Systems have many advantages over the traditional voting system.
? Some of these advantages are less cost, faster generation results, easy accessibility, accuracy, and low risk of human and mechanical errors.
? This system deals with the design and development of a webbased voting system using fingerprint and aadhaar card in order to provide a high performance with high security to the voting system.
? It is fast in performance, stable andprovides business value at a low cost.
? To make the voting process very easy and efficient wireless and web technologies are used.
? There are Electronic Voting Machines used which Takes More Cost.
