You do realize votes are tallied by computer currently, right? In Switzerland, were you vote on referendums up to three times a year [which can be pretty complex issues] votes are cast on paper and counted manually. Vote counting is semi volountary, but rather well paid, at about 32$ an hour in Zurich. First results, with the exception of parliamentary votes, which are more complex, are in two hours after the polling places close. Final results usually don't take longer than four or five hours. Please don't come with the argument that it's a small country, which can not be compared to a huge country like the US. Its' a matter of scaling appropriately on a communcal level and being willing to spend money on it. Of course this has a price, but the question to ask is: Is it not worth the price to guarantee the integrity of your democratic system?
