The eVoter project is an online platform for voting and managing elections. It aims to increase accessibility and convenience for voters by allowing them to cast their votes online, rather than having to physically go to a polling station.

Estonia is widely regarded as a pioneer in the use of online voting systems, having implemented electronic voting in 2005 and expanded its use in subsequent elections. Despite the success of Estonia's online voting system, relatively few other countries have attempted to implement similar systems.

• User registration using voter IDs and login
• Voting in active elections
• Viewing previous and upcoming elections
• Results of completed elections
• Viewing Candidate information
• Admin can check and approve voters based on the information they provided
• Admin can create election polls and view vote progress and results
• Admin cannot view user's vote choices or change the votes or the results as these permissions are locked from admin

In addition to these core functions, the eVoter project will also prioritize the security and integrity of the voting process, as well as the confidentiality of individual votes. These issues are critical to the success and credibility of any online voting system, and will be carefully considered in the design and implementation of the eVoter platform.

The eVoter project uses React, Node.js, Express, and MySQL. Additionaly this project uses Xampp for SQL support
