My linked comment(1) should be a way to verify that a vote was recorded as cast while at the polling place, and to provide a receipt to allow later checking that nothing was tampered with that doesn’t reveal ballot choices. This would stop anyone except the government itself from getting proof of how someone voted, and if the latter situation arises you have bigger problems, but burning your receipt is easy. There are probably even better methods to further protect both anonymity and verifiability. I don’t know if the group at (2) is still active, but the graphic presented there looks like a good setup—-though I think they are after vote-from-home, while my linked comment still makes use of polling places.
