electronic voting system 🗳️\na minimal voting system that offers candidate listings, user voting capabilities, real-time result displays, and the option to add new candidates seamlessly.\n\n## features 👾\n- **candidate display:**  displays a list of eligible candidates for voting.\n- **voting process:** allows users to cast their votes, maintaining integrity.\n- **add candidates:** enables the addition of new candidates to the existing list.\n- **results overview:** displays a comprehensive list of electoral results, accounting for ties.\n- **terminate system:** gracefully exits the voting system with a closing message.\n\n## limitations 🚨\n- **candidate ids**: the system currently lacks validation to ensure the uniqueness of candidate ids, which may lead to potential conflicts in data management.\n- **input validation**: the input validation mechanism is limited to recognizing only the format of `id, name` separated by a `;`. it does not accommodate alternative input formats, which could restrict user flexibility.\n- **user interface**: the user interface may become cluttered when displaying longer candidate ids and names, impacting overall readability and user experience.\n\n## running the project 🏁\nto get the project up and running on your local machine, follow these steps:\n\n- **ensure python is installed:** must have [python version ^3.11](https://www.python.org/downloads/) installed.\n- **clone the repository:**\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/barbaraeguche/electronic-voting-system.git\n```\n- **navigate to the project directory:**\n```bash\ncd electronic-voting-system\n```\n- **run the project:**\n```bash\npython3 driver.py\n```\n\n## gallery 📸\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n
