Happy viewing!!!
Electronic voting machine is an efficient and fast solution that allows people to choose their representative in a systematic manner. It is a simple device that has replaced the conventional ballot papers used to record votes. Also, in large populations, the ballot system failed, whereas EVMs proved to be successful and reliable. This project describes a real-time voting machine that is designed using the microcontroller AT89C51 and the software program used is written in assembly language. It is a real-time operating device that produces lesser errors and is easy to operate. Once the votes are cast, the result can be produced in no time just by pressing the result button.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Nowadays “Electronic voting machine” has become an effective voting tool. Flawless voting is ensured by the Electronic voting machine. This is the reason it became more widespread. People are made sure that their vote is secured. One more feature is that it avoids any kind of malpractice or invalid votes. Talking about economic benefits, this system is more economical as the consequent expenditure incurred on manpower is saved. Also, it is user-friendly, it means voter feels convenient because he/she has to press only one key of the respective candidates to vote.
The electronic Voting Machine maintains all the traditional ballot paper voting system characteristics while making voting a lot more expedient. It also saves a lot of time and manpower being fast and absolutely reliable.
In addition to this, EVM helps maintain the voting secrecy and the result is 100% tamperproof. EVMs have been of great use to India since they were first introduced in 1982 and subsequently became very popular as well. It is highly user friendly as it provides the result with just a button and also, the voters have only to press one button to cast their vote. The AT89C51 microcontroller used is a high performance, low power 8bit microcomputer with 4K Bytes of programmable flash memory.
EEPROM memory is used to store the voting sum. The advantage of this memory is that it keeps data in memory even after power is turned off. The microcontroller provides the following features: 128 bytes RAM, -32 I/O lines, two 16-bit counters/timers, full- duplex UART serial channel and an on-chip oscillator and clock circuit. The Idle Mode halts the CPU while allowing the RAM, serial port, timers, and interrupt system to continue operating.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
Traditional method of voting have problems such as security and counting problem Electronic voting machine has now replaced the traditional mechanism of voting due to several advantages like security, automatic counting etc. This project presents a way to develop an electronic voting machine which displays the count of votes on a 16x2 LCD interface. A user can get his/her vote register through a set of switches (one for each candidate). After every cast of vote, the subsequent count can be seen on LCD. The circuit uses AT89C51 microcontroller and the code for the project has been written in C.
1.3 AIM AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The main aim of this work is to build an electronic voting machine which displays and counts number of votes on a 16x2 LCD interface. The objectives of the project are:
- To save voting time
- To save labour involve in counting votes
- To ensure fair and free election by ensuring that voters will not vote for more than once.
1.4 APPLICATIONS AND ADVANTAGES OF THE PROJECT
1. It is economical
2. Less manpower required
3. Time conscious, as less time required for voting & counting
4. Avoids invalid voting
5. Saves transportation cost due to its compact size
6. Convenient on the part of voter.
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The significance of this study is in the value of implementing the new system. The study will activate democracy and ensure that the popular choice emerges victories in any local government election conducted in Nigeria.
