Here in the UK, we have a paper ballot and we mark our preferred candidate with a pen.

The ballot paper is then posted into a ballot box, which you can see and follow; all the way up until your vote is counted.

Not only does this ensure that you are able to audit exactly where your vote went and make sure it is counted correctly; but also that even if someone where to gain access to these ballots. They would be unable to make sweeping changes or even know the ballots that they are changing the votes of.

Essentially, paper ballots are almost impossible to compromise in any meaningful way.

Electronic voting is almost the complete opposite.

It saves text written in any kind of input box in your browser, like the comment boxes for reddit. If you accidentaly close the tab or browser or go back or whatever, you can just click the little symbol in the top right hand corner of the input box and get access to any of the things you've typed in recently.

Lazarus has saved my arse so many times. It's probably my favourite browser plugin after adblock and Google Dictionary.

I guess we have more localised/stronger civil law enforcement. Parts of India are very remote; the UK not so much.
