Online Voting System using PHP and SQLite with Free Source Code

This project is entitled Online Voting System (Government Official Election). This is a web-based application that provides online voting for government officials. This project handles a nationwide vote submission and counting. This has also a live vote result view page where can visitors/voters can view the voting results of each candidate. This can generate a Printable Voting Result with an Advance Filtering Feature which system user can filer the votes gathered of each candidate in each specific area (Regional, Provincial, District, and per City/Municipalities).

I developed this project using the following:

• XAMPP v3.3.0 as my local webserver that has a PHP Version 8.0.7
• PHP Language
• SQLite Database
• HTML
• CSS
• JavaScript
• jQuery
• Ajax
• Bootstrap
• and more...

About the Online Voting System (Government Official Election) Project

This web application contains 2 modules which are the Admin and Voters Module. The Admin Module is the side of the project where can system management can manage the list of candidates, voters, results, and locations/areas.

The Admin module or panel can be accessed by 2 types of user roles/types which are the Administrator and the Staff users. The Administrator user has access and is allowed to use all the features and functionalities in the said module while Staff Users have only limited permissions.

The Voters module is the side of the system which can be accessed by voters. The voters can register their system credentials so they can access and submit their vote ballot. The voters can only successfully access the voting feature of the system if the management has already updated his/her status to the validated voter. Each voter is required to register for each election and they can only vote once.

In the voting ballot form, the system will show all the list of the candidates that only cover the city area of the voters which means voters can not put a vote to a candidate of a different area.
