Abstract

Electronic Voting Machines ("EVM") are being used in Indian General and State Elections to implement electronic voting in part from 1999 elections and in total since 2004 elections. The EVMs reduce the time in both casting a vote and declaring the results compared to the old paper ballot system.
Here we present a LCD based voting machine circuit. This cost efficient and reliable circuit can be used at lower scale where number of candidates are four. It can used in places like schools, colleges or offices.
The circuit uses AT89C51microcontroller and 16*2 LCD display. A user can get his/her vote register through a set of switches (one for each candidate) After every cast of vote, the subsequent count can be seen on LCD.

Introduction Electronic voting machine has now replaced the traditional mechanism of voting due to several advantages like security, automatic counting etc. This project presents a way to develop an electronic voting machine which displays the count of votes on a 16x2 LCD interface. A user can get his/her vote register through a set of switches (one for each candidate). After every cast of vote, the subsequent count can be seen on LCD. The circuit uses AT89C51microcontroller and the code for the project has been written in C language.

The voting is started by pressing the Init switch after which the user is prompted to

    Voting as an American citizen is being taken into the 21st. Century with Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). Some view it as an untrustworthy way to vote. These EVMs have been controversial in some ways when it comes to the voting process. EVMs can provide many different Americans with many different backgrounds something that paper ballots cannot, and that is the many different languages it can provide, but that is where the positives end. EVMs seem like an alternative into the future, But are plagued with issues.…

    With the coming of electronic voting machines (EVMs), it was not even possible for voters to invalidate their votes by scratching out ballots or voting for two candidates. The only way to ensure that the vote is not wasted on an undeserving candidate was to not participate in the elections. As a result, Indian democracy has suffered from lower voting turnouts and growing dissatisfaction with the quality of candidates contesting elections. In the 2009 general elections, only 58% of registered voters cast their ballots, as against a high of 63% a quarter of a century ago. However, Indian voters going to the polls now have a new choice available to them: “none of the above (NOTA)”. The voters will not have to stand out of elections or invalidate their votes, or…

    Executive Summary: The establishment of an electronic voting system in a country that is still struggling to plant democracy is more of a political venture than anything else. For it to be successful, will have to rely on professional research and will be driven by the understanding of the parties involved. As such, the voters as well as the candidates of elections will be major factors to consider. In that regard, the technical part of the project is miserably dwarfed in terms of importance and concern by the need to make the whole system acceptable, both politically and socially. This means working along with the parties concerned in order to create the trust and faith that is needed for the system to be successful in all ways. This document is a through consideration of the pros and cons of implementing such a project, with regard to cost, research and all the resources needed in the implementation of the project. User concerns, beliefs and the role of age and presence of democracy are critically analyzed to establish a clear and firm ground in which the project should be established.…

    Unfortunately, the voting procedure that was used in the 2000 Presidential race in Florida was obviously inadequate. Using paper ballot sheets that the voter had to punch a hole in that left small chads, may have lost the race for Vice-President Gore. However, with today’s computer technology a better procedure would avoid these types of voting problems. Instead of using paper ballots, computers would allow the voter to absolutely make sure their vote was counted.…

    Voting is a principal way through which the government is elected democratically. This means people tend to select people they want to run the office, depending on the majority. According to Brennan (2011) voting is a civil duty for every citizen, but people disagree and thus confirming that not every individual votes. Voting faces both abstention and indulgence depending on the situations, interest or priority of the voter. To keep the moral of democracy it is very important to make ‘intelligent voting’ but at the same time very difficult to attain. Voters cannot be forced to vote so voting should be made easy to attract voters.…

    Recent efforts to reform the management of elections in Kenya received a major setback following the malfunctioning of electronic transmission of votes, putting the credibility of the presidential poll on trial. The system, based on the acquisition of one-way phone lines from telecoms operator Safaricom connected to servers at the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission’s national tallying centre at the Bomas of Kenya, was a key measure in improving the credibility of the presidential poll, especially the relay and central tallying of the results.…
