What you would need to do is to show the user the vote they made printed
on paper.  It could be behind glass so the user doesn't foul it up.  But,
that way the user could verify that it was correct.

There's a difference between the way it always has been (hard to fix
elections) and the ability to fix the election with the click of a mouse.
