The advancement in technology has transformed the way a lot of processes such academic, social, business and governmental are being carried out. Voting, which is a form of choice exercised by people is not an exception. Technology has been used to transform it from a manual paper-based system to an electronic system and the most recent which is mobile voting system. Infrastructure University Kuala Lumpur Students Representative Council (SRC) is a council that represents student interests in the management of the university. The council conducts elections for students to come and choose their representatives. It is currently using manual paper-based voting to conduct elections which is insecure, inefficient, prone to errors and malpractices and time consuming. This paper proposes the adoption of an Android-based Mobile Voting Application by the council that will enable students to cast their votes and track the results in real time. The application will also provide candidates with a centralized platform to campaign and attract voters. Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology has chosen for the development of the application.
