You can't imagine the pain not having them.
As we had one in every house, there was "online" services which were very popular. Like school registration and ordering. And nationwide yellow pages! 24/7 ! Without the need to get to the post office to check for the county directory, on opening hours .
It was also a wonderful tool to connect people in communities. There was different rate charge and the cheapest were very low. I remember spending nights and nights chatting. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTEL
As every ballot station count only his ballots, it's quick.
For a presidential election, maybe 30 minutes.
The counting is done by the citizens, so no (easy) frauds are possible.
All ballots are visible, the process is transparent, no suspicion.
I personally think that a 30min delay to get the election results is worth the wait.
