I don't know if I agree with this.

Even with paper ballot we still have to trust the people/devices counting the votes.

As an American citizen theres no website I can go to and check my vote. How do I know it was even counted, or properly registered.

If such a site existed, vote buying and/or coercion would be a lot more prevalent.

There is a vote checking system in California to see if your vote by mail ballot was counted
