Not really. At the end of the day, it all boils down to "How much trust do you have in the honesty and competence of your election officials, and the people they associate with?"

The public must be able to see and authenticate these four essential steps for an election to be public, democratic, and valid: (1) Who can vote (voter list); (2) Who did vote (3) The original count; (4) Chain of custody.
