In this paper, the researcher has made a fingerprint based voting machine using Arduino Uno. Biometric Fingerprint devices are used in Electric Voting Machine for voter verification. This proposed designed fingerprint based voting machine where there is no need for the user to carry his ID which contains his required details. The person at the polling booth only needs to place his/her finger on the device, thus allowing the acquisition of an on-spot fingerprint from the voter which serves as an identification. This fingerprint reader reads the details from the tag. This data is passed onto the controlling unit for verification. The controller fetches the data from the reader and compares this data with already existing data stored during the registration of the voters. If the data matches with the pre-stored information of the registered fingerprint, the person is allowed to caste his vote. If not, a warning message is displayed on LCD and the person is barred from polling his vote. The vote casting mechanism is carried out manually using the push buttons. LCD is used to display the related messages, warnings and ensuring results.
