Prior to 2010 Elections, the Philippine elections have been manual, making the process very slow and tiresome. Advantages and flaws were outlined thru review of several approaches to manual and automated elections. Database management and user interface development standards were focused to develop a vote integral solution embodied in a Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) Automated Election System (AES). Based on this pool of database management algorithms, programming tools, and user friendliness methods and metrics, the researchers developed a DRE voting ballot that aims to keep the DLSU vote count integral during student electronics. The system implemented contains three (3) modules, the login, Ballot and Summary modules, to facilitate the vote gathering portion of the DLSU student elections. This DRE voting ballot was put through a summative usability test consisting of 100 DLSU student respondents and found to meet the minimum satisfactory requirements of the researchers. After research and software development, the DRE voting ballot now embodies the system goals set at the start of this thesis.
