I hear you, nothing is trustworthy and that would go for paper too because paper can be altered, subject to pipe bursts, duplicated, ballots made too small and spit out a minute later, people can be told what ballots and machines to use, counters can lie, ballots can be dumped, then you have mail in fraud. There is no way of checking millions and millions with a few hundred people. I already created a solution in a prototype that solves all of this that can be 100% transparent. The problem is that you do not get a receipt after you vote, and do not know if you were even counted or duplicated. We do hundreds of millions of financial credit card transaction a day and you, your bank, and the vendor, all have receipts, right? No one loses a penny, and if they did, they have the proofs for non repudiation. I created an election system that creates electronic ballots that you keep, and can see if you vote counted, not duplicated, nor tampered with by changing who you voted for. The security is on your device, and not just a server. A compromised election machine can alter millions of votes, whereas in my system, which is even stronger security because only you have access to the private key, it could only ever affect 1 out of millions of votes, which is negatable. A recallable ballot is the solution. I am always right.
