> This probably only works properly in the developed countries. In developing countries like India we suffered through decades of "booth captures" [1] where armed gangs would take over a polling booth and cast votes for their political candidate at gun point. Villagers would be disallowed from casting their votes. In many instances, the polling booth itself would be set on fire, ensuring that those votes are never counted. Yeah, but these are visible! They provide evidence that the voting was not fair. Compare to electronic voting, where a capture might be done and no one ever finds out. We want rigging of elections to be visible. That's the whole point.
