Abstract - In order to overcome issues with traditional voting, such as voter impersonation, booth capturing, and logistical inefficiencies, this study proposes a biometric voting method. The technology guarantees that only authorised individuals can cast ballots while maintaining anonymity by combining fingerprint authentication with secure digital platforms. It features a web-based interface for election managers to manage candidates, track votes, and display real-time results, as well as a mobile app for voter registration and remote voting, improving accessibility. The solution lowers costs while increasing security, transparency, and engagement by utilising technologies like Firebase Firestore, the Mantra MFS100 fingerprint scanner, and QR code integration. This essay examines its design, use, and effects on modernising elections to promote efficiency, inclusivity, and trust.
