I am afraid that, if the ballots were not escorted and watched basically from the voter to the counting table, there would be too many opportunities for tampering. I note that you like the vote by mail Oregon system; but, I think it would be the easiest system to corrupt. Most voter fraud, that is actually caught in the US, is committed with absentee ballots — that can be mailed in.

All my adult life I've used a felt-tipped pen to vote. It works fine if I mess up my ballot, they give me a new one.

Pencils can be erased; but the erasures are obvious. Do you think that all voters are going to complete their ballots without making mistakes? If a pen was used, a whole ballot might have to be redone to avoid ambiguous marks that could be challenged by poll watchers.
Our machines print out 2 receipts with your recorded vote. One comes out of the machine with a scan code and the other is behind a thick plastic screen where you can review it and when you press done it rolls up into the machine, they have to keep the receipts for something like 7 years. Lots of storage but you could actually count all the votes again if needed.

I hate Kansas

like a lot a lot.
Tired of living in this state, just wish I knew where I could go -_-
Dorothy tried Oz. Didn't like it. Closed her eyes, clicked her heels three times, and wished herself back home to Kensas. It worked! Try it, close your eyes, make a wish (Hollywood? Frisco? Athens? Paris?), and click your heels. You never know, it might work for you too. :-)

Geochemist and pseudo-statistician here -- having looked at the analysis and data provided by the original author, it looks like this is all very straightforward: it is election fraud. I do not think there is any room for debate -- or politics here. This needs to be brought to light.
