Although cryptographic security is often the main concern in e-voting system development, practical implementation failures are frequently associated with poor user interfaces that increase cognitive load and voting errors. This study evaluates the effectiveness of User-Centered Design (UCD) interventions in improving usability and voter confidence in an e-voting system. A one-group pretest-posttest design was applied to 36 respondents representing novice voters. Usability was measured using the System Usability Scale (SUS) before and after the interface redesign. The intervention focused on visual hierarchy, navigation consistency, status visibility, and error prevention. The results show a statistically significant improvement, with the mean SUS score increasing from 69.10 in the marginal category to 95.76 in the excellent category. The paired sample t-test produced t(35) = -7.3441 with p < 0.0001, while Cohen's d reached 1.2130, indicating a large practical effect. The standard deviation also decreased from 21.98 to 3.09, demonstrating a more consistent user experience. These findings indicate that interface optimization is essential for strengthening accessibility, voting accuracy, and user trust in digital democracy systems.

The election of regional heads is a form of democratic implementation that requires the active participation of the community as voters. However, in its implementation, various obstacles are still found such as low voter participation, limited access to information, and lack of efficiency in the conventional voting process. This research aims to develop an online-based regional head election information system as a solution to increase voter participation through the use of digital technology. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a Waterfall system development model which includes the stages of needs analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and evaluation. The developed system provides features of voter registration, candidate information, online voting process, and real-time recapitulation of vote results. The system test is carried out using the Black Box Testing method and shows that all system functions are running according to the user's needs. The results of this study show that the implementation of an online-based election information system can provide easy access, increase transparency, and encourage community involvement, especially young voters, in the process of electing regional heads. Thus, this system has the potential to become a digital innovation that supports improving the quality of local democracy.

The manual, paper-based election of the Student Council President faces various challenges, such as the lengthy vote counting process and the potential for errors in the recapitulation. To address these issues, this study designed a web-based e-voting information system at SMK Negeri 4 Tangerang Regency. This system was built using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method, which emphasizes speed of development through iteration and prototyping based on user feedback. The development results indicate that e-voting can accelerate voting and vote counting, provide real-time results, and reduce paper usage. This system has been tested using blackbox testing, proving that all functions work as expected and are easily accessible to students. The study concludes that the implementation of web-based e-voting can improve efficiency, security, and transparency in the election of the Student Council President, with suggestions for system usage simulations and regular usability evaluations. Furthermore, this study also shows that the implementation of a web-based e-voting system can reduce the potential for fraud that often occurs in manual elections. With an automated and integrated system, every vote cast by voters is recorded accurately, reducing human error in the vote counting process. System security is also maintained through authentication mechanisms that ensure only authorized users can vote, as well as data encryption to protect sensitive information. This increases voter confidence in the election results, as the process is more transparent and free from manipulation. Furthermore, although the e-voting system has proven effective in increasing election efficiency and accuracy, the study also recommends the need for training for system users, both students and election committee members, to ensure they can utilize the system optimally. Continuous evaluation of the system's usability is also crucial to ensure that the interface remains user-friendly and easily accessible to all parties.

Voting at SMK Plus YSB Suryalaya has traditionally been carried out manually, resulting in a time-consuming process that is prone to errors. Therefore, to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the election process, an online voting system is needed. This research aims to develop a web-based E-Voting system with a Multi-Vote model, allowing voters to vote for multiple candidates across different election categories. This system is designed to simplify the election process at the school, with features such as candidate registration, voter registration, real-time voting, and automatic processing and tabulation of election results. The system was tested using Black Box Testing to ensure its functionality and security, and the results show that the system performs well and meets user requirements. With this system, it is expected that the election process at SMK Plus YSB Suryalaya can be carried out more efficiently, transparently, and with fewer errors.

This study uses a qualitative methodology and secondary source data to investigate election cheating and its impact on Nigeria's democratic consolidation. It will be examined using historical and content analysis. examination. Nigerian democracy's progress has been severely hampered by election tampering. According to the report, e-election holds enormous promise and might be the solution to voter fraud in Nigeria's electoral system provided it is properly deployed and funded. It starts by looking at the constitutional, legal, and theoretical underpinnings of electronic voting. Second, it examines the real-world obstacles to the adoption and deployment of an electronic voting system in Nigeria by learning from other countries. Nigeria's elections have fallen short of expectations thus far because of a variety of electoral manipulations that have prevented the nation from holding legitimate, free, and fair elections within her political system. In addition to undermining Nigeria's democratic consolidation, election cheating has breached the fundamental human right (right to lives) of a large number of Nigerians. This essay offers some crucial suggestions that could solve the issues of election tampering and explain how those actions can support the need for a democratic atmosphere, which is a need for free and fair elections.

As a democratic country, voting is a mandatory and routine agenda for our country when choosing leaders in an organization to the state level. The paper-based voting system that has been used so far has several weaknesses such as ballot damage, vote counting errors, susceptibility to fraud, and delayed election results. To overcome these issues, a more secure and guaranteed electronic voting system is needed. The shift from conventional media to various media used for opinion polling, such as social media/internet, has occurred in this technological era. The E-Voting system has been confirmed as safe and in line with the latest technological advancements. To enhance its security level, the system can use various types of cryptographic algorithms, including AES. Cryptography can be the solution in maintaining information security such as confidentiality, data integrity, non-repudiation, and authentication

Indonesia sebagai negara demokrasi sudah menggunakan metode E-Voting sebagai sarana demokrasi,  walaupun  baru  diterapkan  di  tingkat  pemilihan  kepala  dusun  dan  kepala  desa. Sistem pemungutan suara elektronik (e-voting) harus diseriusi dan menjamin transparansi, kepastian, keamanan akuntabilitas, dan akurasi. Selain kesiapan teknologi, tentunya harus didukung dengan kesiapan masyarakat dalam melaksanakan sistem e-voting ini ke depannya.
