Abstract: Elections are the mechanisms through which citizens choose their leaders by casting votes, traditionally using ballot papers or Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). However, these conventional voting methods are susceptible to misuse and vote rigging. To address these issues, this research proposes a secure voting system that incorporates fingerprint scanning and facial recognition technologies. The proposed system ensures a safe and tamper proof election process by employing fingerprints and facial features as unique biometric identifiers for voter registration and authentication. During the registration process, voter's face are captured, extracted, and securely stored in a database, preventing multiple registrations by the same individual. On the voting day, voters must verify their fingerprints and face, which are then compared against the database. If a match is found, the system authenticates the voter's identity using their Aadhar number, Facial recognition and fingerprint. This approach effectively mitigates the risk of duplicate registrations, leading to a higher rate of successful and legitimate voting.
