After it took a few weeks to find out the result of our last election there was a push to electronicify it. (I think some people were also upset that they had to stand in a queue and why can't we just do it from our phone?)
The push was rejected since (a) the body responsible for running the elections believes it would be less secure and (b) it would still take two weeks to finalise since postal votes can come in up to two weeks after the election as long as they're postmarked before the election.
But people are interested in fast results. And they're lazy.
