India is the largest democracy in the world. Elections are held every five years. A large percentage of India's already considerable population votes during these elections During early times ballot boxes were used. These days EVM or electronic voting machines are used instead, Despite being the largest democracy in the world, there are certain factors which affect it. Various factors include corruption, women’s rights, caste issues, politics etc. Buying votes is not uncommon. People also vote more than once. All this affects the integrity of the elections. Some of these problems can be solved by the use of bio-metric based voting. so by keeping all this in mind we designed a project called bio-metric voting machine. In this project we use fingerprint based voting machine. The fingerprint voting system allows the user to scan his/her fingerprint, in order to examine his acceptable by comparing his current fingerprint with the one already stored in the system’s database, Once the users complete the identification process, they will be allowed to cast their vote . In this we have used lcd to display all the information and the push buttons are used as voting keys. This project ensures that single person gets to vote only once.
