Online Voting System using PHP Free Source Code

Language

Introduction of Online Voting System

This is a PHP Project is entitled Online Voting System. This was developed specifically for a Secondary Level/High School of CHMSC. The system handles the voting process of the school and this provides an online platform for the student to vote for their desired candidates.

About the System

The Online Voting System source code is written/built using PHP, MySQL Database, HTML, CSS, Javascript, bootstrap. The source code was originally developed using the older version of PHP and now upgraded to run properly in later versions such as PHP7. The system has 2 types of users which are the admin user and the voters. The admin user is in charge of managing the list of voters and candidates. The admin can also view and export to excel the canvassing report and the list of voters. The voters will have or be provided with an access or system credential to log in and vote for their desired candidates. The voters are only allowed to vote ones and the system will automatically reject the access if the voter is already voted to avoid duplication of votes.
