Taiwan has the best way of counting votes. Ballot is hold in the air, the name is called out and someone in the back keeps the score. Everyone can see what is going on.
This is why we have scanners to speed up counting paper ballots. And paper ballots are retained for targeted manual counts if there's a need for auditing or recounts.
It is true that some places use much more complex systems and I don’t really understand the interest in those. It definitely don’t see any benefit to fully electronic voting, block-chain or otherwise. Voting doesn’t have to be efficient. It needs to be reliable, understandable, and believable.
If you want to avoid such shenanigans, you'll need to enforce voter privacy.

I have like a 1-2 year old's level of Mandarin at this point, sigh, but I don't think there is a detail I'm missing once the process gets going. This is a good, accessible voting system.
