Information Technology has developed to be essential for the universal status quo. It is deeply influencing the lives of many people in the society. As a tool, it opened new gateway in doing things particularly voting process in the organization. Every Organization performs elections but majority still used the conventional process which is manual procedure.
Nowadays, technology arises to solve a problem with technical solution. All of the transactions and processes are done in computerized way due to the new technological processes that was use.People utilized standardized transactions because of its fast, handy way process, hassle-free and easy. Today, manual process was still used but as of modernization for voting procedures is deal with. In promoting hassle-free and automated voting procedure a system must be projected.
The increase demands of the users and because of improvement the process of voting should automated. To realize the objectives of organization in terms of organized voting, the Direct Recording Electronic Voting System was proposed.In this kind of manual voting process the constrain, were the counting of votes and after elections, the declaration of votes takes a long period of time, because numerous votes are in-line for counting process. Another constrain also, the voters doesn’t fill up ballots completely, this scenario will lead to vote counting inaccuracy thus manual process of voting is not efficient procedure; it really needs to be developed into an computerized process. The researchers came up with the study to develop the Direct Recording Electronic Voting System.The system can help and benefit the organization to solve the problems encountered in using manual voting process.
Voting system must implement to have an organized and faster election system and to avoid unnecessary materials. At the same time, it helped students and teachers to minimize their delay of class after the election. An alteration to automated Direct Recording Electronic Voting System would fetch more benefits and advantages to the school. With our hopes that were able to lay helped to regulate and rush the CKC voting system through this research.Theoretical Framework The booming institutions or companies of the next decade should develop digital tools to reinvent the way they work. These groups should make decisions quickly, act efficiently and interact directly to the process in positive ways.
Going digital could put one on the leading edge of a shock wave of change that could shatter the old way of doing voting process. A digital nervous system could do process at the speed of thought-the key to success in the twenty-first century.Information about the running candidates, to establish the voter’s requirements, to perform the election transaction, and to deliver result electronically if the election happens to be software or information. With traditional process, electronic voting system provides many alternatives for linking tasks and/or processes. Direct Recording Electronic Voting System can track the voters that casted their votes. Observing from the manual process the votes can be defrauded.
Direct Recording Electronic Voting System can provide accurate and reliable vote tally which manual process can’t because in the manual process the casted votes can be altered and count the votes inaccurately. Electronic voting is a method of voting via electronic means. Electronic voting is different from on-line voting, where users vote over the internet. Under the e-voting system, polling stations would be equipped with e-voting machines which are also known as direct-recording electronic (DRE) voting systems (Tan, 2011).
Innovation of voting processes, transactions and its entire operation through adopting computer technology involve a tedious and expensive task, yet promises a long term benefit to the school’s key officials and students in the institution; thus making IT competitive enough to survive the current election processes in this cyber age. Related Literature Election is a global process in which voters vote for the candidates they want to elect in a position. The manual process of voting’s principal tool is the paper ballot; it is where they list down the candidate they want to vote.To computerize and to have a helpful way of voting, the researchers have to take on the idea of automating the voting process into Direct Recording Electronic Voting System.
Globally, voting is a well know method use in selecting a person to be in a position and an effective way to conclude a certain decision. Direct Recording Electronic Voting System is a system by which voters select options and the results are based on the number of inputs by the voters. In which students and alumni in school make prospective choices by voting for contending candidates.Direct Recording Electronic Voting System is used in elections to get the accurate canvassed results of the votes.
The idea of voting is based on an individual vote turned into a collective decision, and the easiest way of determining the winner is through the basis of majority. Voters can only decide and vote during elections, they are the ones who can select the candidates that they want to be in the position. The voter can use the Direct Recording Electronic Voting System in the election of officers.Election is held to the idea of “One Person, One Vote” meaning that every voter’s vote should be counted with equal weight.
Voting System, 2011) as our time change into a new technological era, new technologies are introduced. A voting system works by allowing the interested voters to vote their chosen candidates as the victor. The collection of rule are imposed by the authority based on the principle of having only one number as a legislative, selected from each candidates based on the principle of proportional representation; votes chose between the list of candidates the number of votes from each list determined by the percentage cast for each list out of the total vote. Voting System Hyponyms, 2011)In this organization, the researcher developed and applied the enveloping outcome of arising computer technology through the formation of a system that is intended to help the Elections “The Direct Recording Electronic Voting System” this type of automated voting system was presented to treasure that the problems encountered during school elections are solved. As what we’ve known about the effectiveness and accuracy of computer, the researcher also want that this kind of character is present in the system.
One great example that the big used of high technology was the system being used during the presidential election in Florida, which is called “Direct Recording Electronic Systems” or DRES. It is essential that the rest of the nation modernized voting system so that every vote can be counted and so that Americans can have confidence on the outcome of their elections. (Importance of Electronic Voting, 2006 / Salazar book, 2008). Using DRES as their voting system have made them meet their objectives as to make sure that every vote of persons can be counted.
Just like with this system, the researchers also apply the DRES objective in order that there will be an effective election. Therefore, the researcher concluded that the related studies mentioned, help them to consider the idea and significance of having and using a voting system as a tool to help voters to easily vote and in an innovated way. These things are what we aim to accomplish in our proposed study, that the main emphasis was the voting system. Thus, voting system was necessary for elections to help voters vote automatically.
