minus-squaremerc@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoCan you prove that your vote was counted and that the number of votes for your candidate went up by one as a result? If you can’t prove it, then it’s based on trust.
minus-squareEheran@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoThat’s on the level of “everything could be made up to fool me” or matrix kind of stuff. You can simply be a poll worker yourself.
minus-squaremerc@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoHardly. Historically there has been a lot of cheating in elections. Look at Chicago up to the 1970s. Election fraud was common there. https://www.chicagotribune.com/1973/05/08/how-the-chicago-tribune-exposed-city-vote-fraud-in-1972-and-won-a-pulitzer-prize/ Nobody can prove that there’s less cheating in Chicago elections today than in the 1970s, but people trust that it’s more honest.

How is trust involved in that process?
