A secure online polling application where votes are tied to verified email addresses.

Overview

Users can participate in polls only after verifying their email. Each email address may vote once per poll, and polls automatically close after their expiry date.

Key Features

  • Email verification — prevents anonymous or duplicate voting
  • Poll management — create polls with configurable expiry dates
  • Vote integrity — database constraints enforce one vote per email per poll
  • Modern UI — React frontend with Django REST API backend

Security Considerations

  • Verified email tokens with expiration
  • Server-side validation of vote eligibility
  • Poll closure enforced at the API layer
