        abstract = {Secure and voting system are fundamental in building trust and integrity in contemporary elections. The traditional electronic methods still have problems such as data tampering, unauthorized access, and voter duplication. This paper presents a cloud- based biometric Fingerprint and facial-based voting framework. Recognition for dual-factor authentication. Votes are encrypted with AES and stored in Firebase, whereas their SHA-256 hashes are recorded on a private blockchain to ensure transparency and immutability. The integration of biometric verification, encryption, and blockchain enhances security across all the stages of voting. The system, implemented with an ESP32 microcontroller and R307S fingerprint sensor provides a secure, scalable, and tamper-resistant solution adapted for digital governance and large-scale elections. Secure and verifiable voting system are fundamental to building trust and integrity in modern times election.},
