The e-voting system is an innovative technology that allows voters to cast their legitimate votes for their preferred candidates. This system is structured into two main components: client-side and server-side communication. Mobile wireless devices are primary voting or ballot instruments connected to dedicated servers for secure processing. To ensure robust authentication, the system employs the STAP. This protocol generates a unique token for each voter, granting them a one-time opportunity to vote. The session token automatically expires once the vote is cast, preventing unauthorized or duplicate voting attempts. Transparency, Security, and usability are built into the server-client architecture. Analyzing experimental results with MS Excel and SPSS provides a complete system performance evaluation. The results demonstrate that the proposed architecture can improve e-voting integrity and dependability. A major development in safe and transparent electronic voting technology, this system uses advanced authentication mechanisms and analytical capabilities.
