The secret ballot is also known as the Australian ballot[1] The beauty of casting a ballot in private is that no matter how biased my neighborhood is for Odius Candidate, I can freely vote for Obvious Altruist, no matter the coercion. When everyone is voting at home, ballots might be "helped". Especially if the contest is close. And then there are concerns about ballot tampering. The USPS has lost much, including its reputation.
