Sure, one solution would be to have all the ballots e-mailed
directly to me rather than posted. But, for one thing, there's probably a 
(mis)perception that such a procedure would be fraud-prone. Actually,
since I'd be expected to post the ballots, and whom they're from,
when reporting the results, there's no way I could modify, add, or
leave out a ballot without someone noticing that. Still, if it's
felt by some that verification isn't as good as with posted ballots,
then posted ballots should be used. Aside from that, I just prefer
posted ballots.

D- I note again that looking at voted ballots before the polls close is a 
major election felony in *real* public elections.

ALL of the voted ballots might be posted AFTER they are compiled  -- as when 
ballots are counted in local precincts with poll watchers watching the 
counting.
