Voting Simulator | 2021 Venezuela’s Elections

This project was commissioned by the Venezuela Opposition party to educate local citizens and exiled Venezuelans around the world on how to vote in the upcoming elections.

This was particularly important given the new complex rules imposed by the National Electoral Council (CNE) and the need for it to be a 1:1 representation of the voting machines, which have a fixed screen size. In contrast, our users will access it through different devices with varying screen sizes.

Before building the App, the whole experience was built to validate correlation with CNE rules using Figma. Once the success criteria was validated, the app was implemented using React in the frontend and PHP in the backend for configuring the candidates and political parties. The app was deployed on AWS using S3, CloudFront, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, and EC2.

The app was used by more than 12 million users within a timeframe of 2 months without any technical issues, making it the largest international voting simulation in Venezuela.
