Public Posting And Physical Presence Are Essential For The Public Casting Of Ballots
With public balloting everything is publicly posted.
A receipt, even with designated serial numbers, will only be useful only when its submital is needed to prove something.That in itself will only prove that a voter voted. While this may definitely reduce voter fraud, it will not eliminate or even reduce vote fraud.
A voter needs to be physically present in a voting facility in order for his or her vote to have meaning. Voting is much more of a responsibility than it is a right. Voting has to be carried out in a specific place at a specific time.
Unless a voter is in the military or has already certified himself/herself to be incapacitated to the extent he or she is deemed incapable of cannot going to the polling place, then that voter needs to vote in his/her designated polling place on election day(s) only.
Voting, like the Olympics, is more an event than a deed. For a vote to be taken seriously, it has to be cast in a certain place at a certain time. Otherwise, the activity of voting loses meaning.
Voting was never meant to be convenient. It was only meant to be official. A vote cast should be a public document about the choosing of public officials. It has to be conducted in a public setting during the designated times open to the public. No vote should ever be privately cast.
