Voting presents uniquely difficult challenges, you need integrity, strong authentication, verifiability, and anonymization.
As others have stated, this particular scheme's weakness to tampering lies at the receiving end of the app's server.
There are other privacy problems with the "send a selfie" of the on-duty soldiers I won't get in to.
