Signatures, both thumbprints on any absentee ballot, and on check-in at in person voting(Not correlated to the actual vote on in-person to maintain secret ballot, but can be used later to help put a fraudulent person in jail for the rest of their life if thumbprints and handwriting match on two ballots).
Indelible election ink should be used on both thumbs, even if IDs are required.
Additionally, absentee/mail in ballots should contain a blood stain(via thumb prick), which helps ensure said person is genuinely alive.(Though you could save blood, it is expensive long term). They should also have to write in their own hand
"I, {name}, hereby swear under penalty of perjury that I have not shown this ballot, while filled out in whole or in part"
possibly appending if they insist on allowing assistants " except for a necessary assistant who did not attempt to sway my vote."
Commanding officers, or DOD civilian oversight personnel, may not vote or absentee vote until they ensure all of their troops were given the opportunity(seen them claim they did not have the time to deliver absentee ballots).
