        abstract = {The Online Voting System is a Java-based web application designed to conduct elections securely and efficiently over the internet. It eliminates the need for traditional paper-based voting by allowing registered users to cast their votes online, ensuring a fast, reliable, and tamper-proof process.
This system is developed using Java (Servlets/JSP or JavaFX) for the front end and MySQL as the back-end database, with JDBC for connectivity. The core modules include Admin Management, Voter Registration, Secure Login, Voting Process, and Result Generation.
The admin can create elections, manage candidates, monitor votes, and view real-time results. Voters must register with valid credentials, and once approved, they can log in to securely cast their vote. The system ensures that each voter can vote only once and stores all votes in an encrypted format. Candidate lists are dynamically displayed, and results are generated instantly after voting ends.
The database consists of tables like voters, candidates, votes, and elections to handle all necessary records. This system enhances election transparency, reduces human errors, and accelerates result processing. It is particularly useful for colleges, institutions, societies, or organizations to conduct internal elections. The platform supports secure authentication, real-time reporting, and remote accessibility, making it a practical solution for modern voting needs. Scalable and easy to use, the Online Voting System ensures integrity, convenience, and speed in the voting process, benefiting both voters and administrators alike.},
