This is a decentralized e-voting application built on the Ethereum blockchain. It allows for secure and transparent voting using smart contracts.
The Decentralized E Voting Application is designed to provide a reliable and tamper-proof platform for conducting elections. By leveraging the power of blockchain technology, it ensures transparency, immutability, and integrity throughout the voting process.
- Secure Voting: The application utilizes blockchain technology to ensure the security of votes. Each vote is recorded on the Ethereum blockchain, making it nearly impossible to alter or manipulate the results.
- Transparent Process: The voting process is transparent, as all transactions are visible on the blockchain. Anyone can verify the integrity of the election by examining the smart contract and the recorded votes.
- Candidate Information: The application provides information about the candidates participating in the election. Users can access candidate profiles and make informed decisions before casting their votes.
- Real-Time Results: The application displays real-time voting results, allowing participants and observers to track the progress of the election. Results are updated as votes are cast and recorded on the blockchain.
- User-Friendly Interface: The application offers a user-friendly interface, making it easy for voters to participate in the election. The intuitive design ensures a smooth and hassle-free voting experience.
- Solidity: Solidity is the programming language used to write the smart contract that governs the voting process on the Ethereum blockchain.
- Ethereum: The application leverages the Ethereum blockchain to store and validate votes, ensuring security and transparency.
- React: React is used to build the frontend user interface, providing an interactive and responsive experience for voters.
- Web3.js: Web3.js is a JavaScript library that interacts with the Ethereum blockchain. It is used to connect the frontend with the smart contract and handle transactions.

- Open the application in your web browser.
- Browse the candidate profiles and read their information.
- Select your preferred candidate from the list.
- Click the "Vote" button to cast your vote.
- Monitor the real-time results to see the updated vote count for each candidate.
- At the end of the election, view the final poll results.
- Optionally, start a new poll by clicking the "New Poll" button.
