Here is an article by a cybersecurity expert saying distributed (i.e.
non-centralized
counting) paper ballots with oversight is more secure than any digital
solution.

Again: computerized = centralized, and centralized = far easier to corrupt
by intimidation,
coercion or bribery by less than a handful of people. Computerized =
requires specialists
to understand, not the lay person.

Mikalai, in the end you are seeking a technological problem to what is
basically a societal
and political issue (dictatorship, totalitarianism, iron fist rule). It
does not work any better
than using technology to get your kids to do their room (although Calvin
and Hobbes disagree).
