- EVM is an abbreviation for Electronic Voting Machine. It is, as the name implies, an electronic machine with buttons against the political parties that are running for office.

- It is a simple method of voting that eliminates the need for paper. It also contributes to faster election results. The results can also be declared more quickly than with the paper-stamp method.
- Voting with EVMs is environmentally friendly for the reasons stated above.
