Abstract

The current article is focused on proposing a new electronic voting system that will assist the government in conducting the online voting for the elections. The system will be secure with the end to end encryption to ensure that no data theft occurs during the transfer. The key demerit of the system is the security from the end of the government. It has to be ensured that all the external threats are kept at bay when using the online voting system. The secondary research approach is considered to mine the information required to conduct the study and develop the system. Overall, it can be stated that the new system will allow the government and public to have improved voting experience if implemented successfully.
