How about... 1.) a roll of aluminum or paper good for, say, 10000 votes each per machine roll, where each ballot result is punched into the roll, and then removed from the machine when "full."

2.) the rolls are numbered and are limited to a specific amount (per precinct and overall total) to prevent "phantom" rolls appearing out of nowhere. The rolls are then collected and sent to a central location to be fed through a MECHANICAL--not computerized--machine, with a trusted official campaign representative from each party in attendance to witness the tabulation.

3.) the rolls are then fed through another machine that will provide at the voter a "receipt" to be automatically generated and sent to the voter's residence confirming both a vote, and confirming who they voted for. This would be done by machine, without the aid of any person, and would be confidential.

“sent to the voter’s residence confirming both a vote, and confirming who they voted for”

That wouldn’t be secret balloting.
