Abstract
Organizing free and fair elections in the country has become quite
difficult for the government these days .A large amount of money has
been spent on this to ensure that there are no riots during the
elections .But nowadays, certain forces have become accustomed to
rigging elections, leading to a contrary verdict to what the people
intended. The purpose of this paper is to present a new voting scheme
that uses biometrics to improve accuracy and speed while avoiding
rigging. Due to the fact that each human has a different fingerprint, we
can easily identify the personal details by using fingerprint sensors in
our system. Therefore, this system is better than the current voting
system. Voters' fingerprints will be entered into the system as input
during the elections. Then this input fingerprint will be compared to
the database. If the user's data is available in our database, then we
will grant them voting access. However, if the record does not match our
database, then we will reject this vote. The same applies to repeat
users. By reducing costs, the system's maintenance costs and overall
costs for conducting elections also decrease.
