Why not ballot-by-email, instead? Seems safer.

whatever. why not both? as long as it can be secured and verified.

tamper-evident seals on envelopes and forgery-evident elements in ballot slips (similar to what's used in paper currency) should do it.

You can always take them out of a person's mailbox, fill them out, wait until after they check their mail, put the letter back, flip the mail flag up and wait, though.

tamper evident seals! that's why you need them. the ballot is distributed in a sealed envelope that contains a return envelope with a new seal.

So couldn't you just take that out of their mailbox, too?

the worst you could do is just destroy the ballot before it's returned. this is relatively easily solved with a secured ballot drop site instead of regular mail carrier.

So wait, I'm missing something here. What's stopping them from intercepting the mail before the person checks the mail, filling it out, putting it in the right envelope, sealing it, and then sending it back with the former approach? And the second, yeah, I'd agree there.

ok the first leg is distributing a SEALED ballot packet. the ballot packet contains the ballot slip that has a unique bearer token based on the voter's unique ID. it also contains a return envelope with an unused seal to be placed on the return envelope.

the second leg is collecting the completed and sealed ballot return envelope. secure drop site if curbside mailbox is thought to be insecure.
