It sounds like you are not familiar with the concept of verifiability or more precisely E2E-V for evoting systems that can be attained. The goal is to never trust the software that is running the machines or officials and thoose are kept accountable with a public cryptographic evidence produced along with final tally. They still are trusted with not sabotaging the process and assuming that one or few parties are not corrupt to ensure vote anonimity, but never with integrity.

- JanisErdmanis 2y agoThis is somewhat unrelated to what I posted, but interesting. At what time does voters get this hash? Is it after the cast their vote in which cases why wouldn’t coerces/bribers ask it as receipt that voters had cast their vote in a certain way?
