In the era of technology, the voting machine, which is
present today, is highly unsecured. Being in the age of Computers we are
compromising the security by opting for Electronic voting machine because in
the present electronic voting machine is not intelligent that is it cannot
determine the person came for the voting is eligible or not . That mean the whole
control is kept in the hand of voting in charge officer. One more risk with the
present voting machine is that anybody can increase the vote count, since the
count is present in the machine itself.
In
proposed machine that is “Global Wireless E-Voting “. In this the machine is
made intelligent which can determine the eligibility of the voter by scanning
the eye pattern and also the vote count is not kept into the same machine
itself instead of it it is store in the remote server by converting it into
radio waves. Here there is no chance of increasing the vote count of machine.
Even in case of damage to voting machine there will not be harm to continuity
of the election process. The overall
concept of “Global Wireless E-Voting “is explained.
Voting is one of the most critical features in our
democratic process. By casting a vote we hold previous politicians to account
and express our hopes for the future. Of course democracy is more than votes -
it's debate, letter writing, campaigning, consultation - but the vote is how
every single citizen can wield real and immediate power. In addition to
providing for the orderly transfer of power, it also cements the citizen’s
trust and confidence in an organization or government when it operates efficiently.
It's incredibly important that everyone can vote without interference, safe in
the knowledge that it will be counted. Through the long history of democracy we
have learnt that in the pursuit of power some groups are willing to threaten
voters to make sure they vote 'the right way'. But if the vote is secret then
there is no way for intimidators to know whether someone has voted for them or
not - threats become useless. So votes are a vital expression of the people's
power, which need to be secret and restricted to only one per citizen.
Electronic voting is a term used to describe any of several
means of determining people's collective intent electronically. Electronic
voting includes voting by kiosk, Internet, telephone, punch card, and optical
scan ballot (a.k.a. mark-sense). Voting is done for many reasons and in many
situations, ranging from determining the next garden club officers to
determining the next leader of a country. Depending on the situation, a voting
scheme will be required to meet differing needs depending on the circumstances.
One hopes that in this way the voting process becomes faster, cheaper, more
convenient, and also more secure.
Requirements in E-Voting
→ A voting system
should satisfy these requirements
→ Eligibility and
authentication – only registered voters must be admitted.
→ Uniqueness – no
voter may cast his vote more than once.
→ Accuracy – voting
systems should record the votes correctly.
→ Verifiability and
audit ability – it should be possible to verify that all votes
→ have been
correctly accounted for in the final tally, and there should be
→ reliable and
verifiably authentic election records.
→ Secrecy – no one
should be able to determine how any individual voted
