Abstract

Electronic voting, or e-voting, is an electronic, usually computerized way to
facilitate a voting process. In comparison to the traditioual paper ballot voting
systems, e-voting systems have many advantages such as lower costs, the
reduction of manual errors, and increased accessibility for potential voters. The evoting
system need to be implemented in e-government in Malaysia but the study
focuses more into small community which is election event held by Student
Representative Council (MPP) of University Technology of Petronas .. Before
this, the election process in any university usually follows the same government
election process, which is manually implemented. Therefore, in this paper, it
discuss about converting manual voting system into internet-based voting system
which is the main objectives of the project. In MPPUTP election before this,
students used paper ballot (coupon) and student matric card which are necessary
for them to bring ah>ng during the election day. The student needs to walk far
away from their hostel in the hot sunny day which is difficult for them and
perhaps they may not be willing to go out and vote but with e-voting system, the
number of student to vote may be increase than manual system. The results of
voting will be available to students in a shorter time and the reliability of the
process is always available. The innovation applied to the voting process will
probably improve the voter turnout .statistics. 'Ibis project will concentrate on the
whole e-voting system on how to develop the e-voting system, which the system
administrator (SPR) and the voters (student) are target users in this system. The
author is developing a website ofe-voting system using the PHP language. There
are some potential improvements . of this system and some important issues
regarding e-voting systems are discUssed by the end of this document. As for that,
the author really appreciates to have this opportunity to do the research regarding
this title in order to develop the e-voting system which is beneficial to this
university's MPPUTP election and relevant to be implemented in Malaysian
government.
