Voting System

Abstract:-

The project "Voting Software" aims at making the voting

process easy in cooperative societies .Presently voting is performed using
ballot paper and the counting is done manually, all the co-operative societies
conduct voting process to select right person for holding reputed position.
Our project aims at helping the voting process in co-operative societies.

Online voting is the focus of most current attention. If such voting is to

become a reality, it must address each of the steps outlined in the Box above.
For instance, the registration process would need to include distribution of
appropriate identification numbers, etc. Passwords and smart cards can be
used to increase the reliability and security of voter authentication online
voting would also need to address obtaining, marking, delivering, and
counting ballots via computer. Some electoral systems already use
computers in these steps - for example, a punch card ballot system uses a
computer for ballot counting, while an automatic teller machine (ATM)-
style Hence it consumes a lot of time. There can be possibility of invalid
votes. All these make election a tedious task. In our proposed system voting
and counting is done with the help of computer. It saves time, avoid error in
counting and there will be no invalid votes. It makes the election process
easy.
Existing System
 The Voting System which we are used in olden days and now a day’s making a
voting process is complicated and incorrect. Because of Some disadvantages are given
below:
Disadvantages

2) By using ballot system rigging process done and counting is manually.

Proposed System
In this system people can making voting process very easily through internet,
counting is done automatically and result displayed on home page.

Advantages
1) Through this web application we can save the time, we can efficiently get
succeed in implementing all the information within short span of time.
2) With the help these projects easily making voting through the internet in all
democratic countries like India.

MODULES
The major modules of the project are
