    It doesn’t produce results instantly, which means the President can scream “election fraud!” when results come in over time and numbers change.

    This is the age old critique of digital security. Social engineering will do more harm than any technical safety features can prevent.

      In Australia we get the ‘general’ result, i.e. which party won and winners of most seats, on the night of the election, with a few seats needing a week or two to fully count and recount. Sure it might take a few hours but the AEC have things pretty streamlined.

        Does not seem to have deterred the usual crowd. And with the state of Australian media, this is increasingly becoming the popular belief.

      I don’t think it’s better to instead give them a way to speedrun fraud.

      People can scream fraud, who cares. Just mean you’re a sore loser.
