Certainly agreed re; approval/proportional/similar.
I'm not sure what you mean regarding the EVN. They provide auditing services, don't they? Also recommend auditing paper ballots here:
> Conduct post-election audits before certification of final results
> Without voter-verified paper ballots, effective audits are impossible.
From their top ten list: http://editions.lib.umn.edu/electionacademy/2016/09/08/evns-top-ten-list-on-election-security/ http://editions.lib.umn.edu/electionacademy/2016/09/08/evns-...
My impression is that SF actually uses a ballot designed for chain of custody accounting, but doesn't use it whatsoever in practice because of the effort involved. I may be wrong on this. But "many hands, eyeballs, proper accounting" is unfortunately not available for our elections in most areas.
