3 part ballot that you tear apart (think forensic tear)
Left side -- actual vote (you put this in the vote bin)
Middle part --- your receipt (you take this home)
Right part --- voter info, signature (you put this in the voters bin)
100 ballots per lot number---- all three parts will be marked with that lot number
All of the "vote" and "voters" tickets will be scanned and posted online by lot number. No "tear" connection can be made between the two without the missing middle receipt piece.
Anyone can check their "forensic tears" online. Only the receipt holder can match both sides.
Raffle tickets use this tearing method to validate a winning ticket.
We also need precincts to report the total count of legally collected ballots BEFORE tabulation begins.
Polls close at 7pm.
Precinct counts and certifies exactly 4,211 ballots legally received.
Secretary of State waits until ALL precincts have reported counts. Then signals tabulation.
Tabulation and reporting begins. Precincts report to SoS.
SoS announces winner.
All this can be done in one night. Reporting total ballot counts before votes are tabulated means a loser cannot magic up a bunch of late arrival ballots. Sure, they can switch votes within their precinct still, but they’re going to have to guess how much fraud to commit in advance and then stick with that number.
And yes, paper ballots and audits of every election to find the cheaters and prosecute them.
Did he say counted the same night?
Yes
Must.Be Enforced.
That also is up to us.

Sounds good, make it so
It's the only right thing to do.
We also need to dig into our locations and make sure voter rolls are CLEAN beforehand, with no sudden additions at the last minute.
Won't happen. He was President and didn't stop it. Now he's just some guy and he's going to? Think.
It is not up to him to stop it.
That's up to us.
