There are also lists of who lives in a county/state/country. If you suspect foul play you can further look up if John Doe is a person that lives in the 'right' place. Of course this doesn't solve the case where John Doe is a real person that is allowed to vote, but actually stayed home.
- mehrdadn 8y agoHow in the world would you know to suspect foul play from specific people though? Especially when they can be a very small fraction of the population?
- codedokode 8y agoWith paper voting, an observer can manually count the number of people coming to the polling station. With electronic voting, this becomes impossible, because you either only see the final list or (sometimes) you see the hashes of votes being cast in real time, but you don't know whether it is a real person or just sysadmin voting under name of a random person. So with electronic voting, it becomes necessary to verify lists of voters.
