I like part of this concept, but I want to suggest that there can’t be two or more systems working in parallel. It seems like these would make the system more “trustworthy” but it would in fact do the opposite. Having two or more systems is bound to be even more open to corruption—either intentional or accidental-and this less trustworthy. Blockchain has been proven to not be immutable, and neither are existing voting mechanisms. It is a difficult problem to solve without a wholesale change in my opinion. A combination of date, time, location, identification, photo, authentication, etc. tied to a real-time ~100% available system would be needed as a start. The voter could then review and approve their vote as seen in “paper” form. That would provide the check and balance. I would love it if someone developed this system!
