To move away from this system, technology must be adopted to automate democratic process of voting. This paper describes the design and implementation of a digital electronic ballot counter box as an introduction to the automation of the electoral processes which will curtail electoral vices and ease the task of counting, and increase efficiency and speed. The system consists of six basic units: (i) the light source and photo sensing unit,(ii) the voltage comparator unit, (iii) the pulse generator unit, (iv) the counter, (v) the output display, and (vi) the power unit. The system is designed to accommodate as much as 9999 counting.
