(But, it's not just the "secure" part. As long as the system isn't transparent - i.e., as long as people can't walk away absolutely KNOWING how they actually voted, and how the system recorded their vote, there's no solution. The perception of disenfranchisement - even by whackos - is enough to allow them to opt out of any sense of governance by the winner.)
Why can't we just do internet voting? Would that relieve your issues
