During elections, People in each district are divided into wards based on their locality and each ward has their respective polling booths. The people have to show their voter ID card whenever they go to the polling booth to poll their vote. This is a time consuming process as the person has to check the voter ID card, confirm it as an authorized card and then allow the person to poll his vote. The people belonging to different places have to poll their votes only in their respective booths. In our proposed system, a person can poll their vote from any location in any polling booth nearest to them irrespective of their locality. The user needs their Aadhaar card as an identity proof and fingerprint for authentication, this would be verified with the database already stored. In this project we have used RFID instead of Aadhaar card. Using the address in the card, his locality will be identified and a LCD display would show him the election candidates for his district. The voter can select the candidate of their choice using the provided keypad. The data of the casted votes would be collected and sent to their respective locality for counting. Thus the people can vote in the nearest booths and also false voting can be avoided since it links the fingerprint and the Aadhaar card.
