Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) are devices used to cast and count votes in elections. They aim to streamline the voting process, making it faster and more efficient while reducing the chances of human error associated with traditional paper ballots. These machines come in various forms, including direct recording electronic machines and optical scan systems. EVMs are designed to enhance security and accessibility, ensuring that all eligible voters can participate in the democratic process. However, concerns about their reliability and potential vulnerabilities have sparked debates about their use in elections.
