Usually it is enough to count them in front of representatives from each party. That is how it is done in my country, but legally anyone can oversee the counting (could be logistically problematic, though).
I call this "open" elections (see my other post here). In my terminology, "transparency" is when Mr and Mrs John Q. Public understand the whole process. However, English is not my native language, but transparent was the closest word I could find for something everyone can grasp and "see through".
The problem we see is infiltration. Seriously, the head Republican was just removed in Michigan because they were secretly working to get some Democrats elected.

We don't have that here, as we have no president. The elected parties work out who they support as prime minister.
I guess infiltration is unavoidable, when you have primaries and registered voters?
