There is a simple mechanism for determining if the total amount of votes turned in by a precinct is valid—stickers.

Where I vote, whenever a voter leaves they are handed a sticker that says “I voted.” Not a big deal, but it is a tradition that goes back decades.

If you start out the day with 1,000 stickers and you end the day with 425 stickers, that means 575 votes were cast at that location. If it comes in way below or above that, you know there is a problem (like people casting multiple ballots—which was alleged in one story).

Low tech? Sure, but when it comes to high tech machines like electronic voting machines using a low tech audit method makes it harder to cheat. Plus, it’s easy to implement.

True, but you have to have a GOP leadership that cares, and obviously they don’t since they won’t fight against it.
