Abstract

Voting is a basic human right for the people. By voting people can choose their preferred candidate or leader for any kind of social leadership. But nowadays voting is quite hectic and costly. The Election committee has to work long hard for the preparation. It took long time and many human labours and it is quite costly. In our study we tried to make the full voting system into online basis. The system will be able to make voting system online. With online voting system security of the system and people data came in first. So in this study it introduces a method for digital voting that prevents duplicate submissions. By combining facial recognition with one-time password checks, identity confirmation becomes more reliable. What sets it apart is how verification links to existing records for consistency. Ensuring each individual casts only one ballot forms the central aim. Transparency remains visible throughout the process without slowing performance down. This study introduces a method for digital voting that prevents duplicate submissions. By combining facial recognition with one-time password checks, identity confirmation becomes more reliable.
