Abstract:
Recently, information technology has greatly impacted positively in all aspects of life, which actually with proven facts to a large extent, includes politics. The most recent method which is being adopted is the electronic voting (E-voting) system which is based on the use of mobile phone by the voters. To develop more on the electronic voting system, a secured and reliable e-voting system was put in place. This system protects the privacy of the voter, which is user friendly and can be used anywhere in the world with internet coverage during the time of election. A voice interactive voting system using the global system mobile device was developed with implementation of a dual tone multiple frequency (DTMF) decoder which makes the whole system interactive. The method adopted in this research work was the use of a program written in c-language and a microcontroller to control the whole process of voting based on DTMF technology. This method was use to overcome the problem involve in the use of paper ballots. This development came about as a result of the outcome of a study of the electoral process carried out in the electoral commission of Nigeria. Two data-bases would be created by the database administrator; the first is to keep a record of the voter’s information and the second database will have information about the election parties.
