1.1 Overview
Elections allow the populace to choose their representatives and express their preferences for how they will be governed. Naturally, the integrity of the election process is fundamental to the integrity of democracy itself. The election system must be sufficiently robust to withstand a variety of fraudulent behaviors and must be sufficiently transparent and comprehensible that voters and candidates can accept the results of an election.
This is where Electronic voting comes in. Electronic voting (also known as e-voting) is a term encompassing several different types of voting, embracing both electronic means of casting a vote and electronic means of counting votes.
Since our department doesn’t have this, the group proposed a system that can be very useful and helpful. We assure that this automated system be very handy in getting votes, and counting them accurately and fast.
Statement of the Problem
Voting is a painful process especially in calculating votes and recognizing the voted candidate and summing votes to determine the winner.
Goals and Objectives Due to all this we decided to build a system that will help our department for a speedy and accurate election.
The primary objective is to: 1. To develop a system software that will help lower overhead and cost of Voting Process 2. To improve the efficiency in voting 3. To increase accuracy
Scope & Limitations The system is created as a
