Not to put too fine a point on it, but you wouldn't have to fake anything if you just didn't use electronic voting.

Simply give a ballot to every voter and have them fill it out. Especially nowadays, as pretty much every election in every nation will come under cyber attack precisely because they are using electronic voting and hackers can manipulate the votes.

If I were being ungenerous, I would say all the politicians want electronic voting everywhere because they can manipulate it with cyber attacks.




The ungenerous take does not seem like a natural choice, its choosing to make yourself a little fish in a big pond, unless I'm missing something that makes it more appealing than traditional 'imaginative' means of gaining political power?
