The manual process used in elections is weakened by human interference, it causes irregularities in the polls and delays vote counts. This book explores the benefits of replacing it with the electronic system, which has improved the quality of elections in many countries. The book has grouped democratic countries into two categories: mature democracies and new democracies. Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, the UK, and the USA represent the first group, and Bangladesh, Brazil, India, Pakistan, Russia, and the Philippines represent the second group. The first group overcomes malpractice in elections through long exercises, when they could be using technology for accurate and swift delivery of poll results. For instance, the US can overcome controversial elections by empowering the Federal Election Commission to establish a uniform system. Colonial and dictatorial legacies instigated citizens' undemocratic behavior in new democracies. Electronic voting has fixed malpractices in their elections in a shorter period. Therefore, this book argues that electronic voting should be implemented in both mature and new democracies.
