Abstract

This research paper presents an advanced online voting system, incorporating the Diffie-Hellman encryption algorithm, to ensure voter privacy and address key challenges in digital elections. The system offers additional features such as anonymous authentication, verifiable decryption, and secure ballot transmission. Through a rigorous evaluation process, the proposed approach received an overall evaluation score of 3.55 out of 5, indicating its effectiveness in upholding voter privacy and system efficiency. Specific evaluation criteria revealed accuracy with a score of 3.57 out of 5, efficiency at 3.53 out of 5, reliability at 3.54 out of 5, timeliness at 3.50 out of 5, and a commendable security rating of 3.59 out of 5. These results highlight the system's potential in providing a secure and user-friendly online voting platform, encouraging voter participation and reinforcing the democratic principles of transparency and integrity.
