Abstract
Voting is usually recognized as one of the main characteristics of Democracy. Electronic election is a very recent idea regarding voting. Voter, once given his vote, has to rely upon the election systempsilas honesty and security. Free and fairness of an election is desired by almost everyone associated with it. Hence designing an election system needs special care. Furthermore, an electronic election should be more secure, transparent and trustworthy, as common people have less faith in computers due to system crashes and hacking threats. In this paper, we are going to describe our implementation of an efficient and secured electronic voting system based on the Fujioka- Okamoto-Ohta protocol which is the most practical and suitable protocol for large scale elections. Our implementation contains the automation of an online voting system providing some features which were absent in the previous implementations. We have made our system even more user friendly and secured but faster than the others using recent technologies and resources.
