I support releasing the ballots. Something like "time bounded privacy". So maybe a week or two after polls close. Or as part of the canvassing board's election certification process. To the best of my knowledge, throughout the USA all the election materials are destroyed in short order. Which nicely moot continued, ongoing debate. One old-timey justification was to make the certification final, giving the public some certainty in the results, rightly or wrongly, so they'd accept the outcome and move on. Well. We're way past that now. Perhaps greater (utter) transparency will calm everyone down again.
