1. INTRODUCTION
The goal of ballot vote is to allow the citizen to implement
their rights to express their choices regarding specific issues,
pieces of legislation, citizen initiatives, constitutional
amendments, recalls and/or to choose their government and
political representatives. To allocate the exercise of this
precise, more or less all voting systems around the world
include the subsequent stepladder: voter recognition and
verification, voting and recording of votes cast, vote
including, publication of election results. At present the
voting system the citizens should confirm his voter ID card
whenever a personality goes to the booth to poll one’s vote.
This process could be a time consuming method and we can
reduce proxy votes.
We have five phases for registering the vote. At the time of
voting in the elections, the QR code Scanner will be used to
decode the enrollment ID printed on the Aadhar card in which
our database is already stored/registered. Then it drives the
next OTP and voter id authentication stage. The
authentication can be done using OTP generated by admin
during the election time. If Aadhar card id was matched in
data base which allows the authenticated voters to vote on
election. If the user successfully entered the OTP, the voter
redirected to entering the voter id for choose candidates to
vote. The voter id also stored in database for authentication.
At a time of voting the voter id also matched in database then
only we can vote. Then we have to select the particular
candidates whom we are electing. If we done all this
procedures sequently then we receive the message that we
have completed successfully.
This paper is to create an android application for which voting
can be performed. Also it will help to swipe out defrauding of
the traditional voting system which involves voting by
multiple votes cast by the user. This attitude is applied during
the course of process, which helps to reduce the probability of
hacking and other attacks and frauds occurring in previous
method of electronic voting machines and manual voting
process. There is lot of methods to avoid fraudulence in
referendum, but we are not able to wipe out it completely.
This paper will give solutions for the above mentioned
problem.
2. EXISTING SYSTEM
Electronic Voting Machines ("EVM"), Idea invented by the
Chief Election Commissioner in 1977. Now manufactured by
the above two undertakings. The machines consists of two
units,
i) Control entity
ii) Balloting division
The two units are joined by a five-meter cable. The Control
Unit is with the Presiding Officer and the Balloting Unit is
placed inside the voting compartment. There are many types
of consequences with EVM which is currently in use they are:
Accuracy: It is not possible for a vote to be altered e
laminated the invalid vote cannot be counted from the
ultimate total.
Equality: It permits only qualified voters to vote and, it
ensures that eligible voters vote only once.
Security Problems: One can change the program installed in
the technology and corrupt the results after the polling. By
replacing a small part of the machine with a look alike
component that can be silently instructed to steal a percentage
of the votes in support of a chosen candidate. These
commands can be sent wirelessly from a portable phone.
ABSTRACT
Previous voting process, voting environment is troublesome because of disinclination of voters to visit booth. In this paper the voter can vote from
anywhere any constituency of India. This paper includes the overall technical idea behind using Aadhar card for e-voting. By scanning the QR code
in the Aadhar card the voter is allowed to cast their vote. By using the unique user id and password one voter can only post one vote for an election.
The user can change the nominees ballot several times before going to yield the vote. Each and every vote casted is stored in the database for the
respective argument. At last of the voting process the server counts the total votes and generates a brief report of it to the admin. Thus the referendum
using android application helps every citizen to participate in the election.
Keywords: Aadhar card, citizen and database.
