Online Voting System

EasyChair Preprint no. 12799

Abstract

— The proposed system represents a comprehensive and secure approach to the electoral process, consisting of three integral sections: admin, voter, and candidate. The admin section serves as the gateway for inputting crucial voter and candidate information into a centralized database. When registering as a voter, individuals provide their facial features, enabling a sophisticated biometric identification process. This ensures a high level of accuracy and security in verifying the identity of each voter. Meanwhile, candidate registration is a straightforward process that involves gathering essential information to establish a comprehensive database of potential representatives. During the actual voting process, an advanced live camera system is employed to conduct facial recognition scans. This innovative technology plays a pivotal role in authenticating voters based on their distinct facial features. The system then employs the Facenet classification method to assess the eligibility of each voter. If deemed eligible, a unique voter ID block is generated and subsequently added to the Blockchain. This integration with Blockchain technology introduces an extra layer of security, rendering the records immutable. Through the application of SHA-512 hashing, the voter ID block becomes impervious to any attempts at tampering or unauthorized alterations, guaranteeing the integrity of the electoral records. This multifaceted system not only ensures a highly accurate and secure voting process but also establishes a robust foundation for transparent and trustworthy elections.
