Abstract :
In this paper we have formulated an online voting framework which ensures that the voter is able to vote in a public environment without his vote being eavesdropped on by a neighbor i.e. his vote becomes known to his neighbor or a third party when he marks his choice on a particular candidate. We also give a model for secure online voting system using zero knowledge proof and other cryptographic schemes encompassing the voting process of the user and the backend process of servers and the tallying and display of results and verification by the user of the vote cast by him at a later stage.
