Which current situation are we referring to here? In Venezuela, if every vote were tied to a specific identified person, their government could still ignore that and doctor the result. The only thing that changes is that now there is a list of opposition voters in the hands of a hostile government. If the goal is to allow individuals to audit their vote and ensure that the government counted it correctly, it is possible to do that without compromising anonymity. If the goal is to release a public list of every person who voted and who they voted for... I think you're insane and drastically underestimate the capacity for voter coercion and political violence.
