I don't know man, my take, the unibomber was right technology is fucked. I work in information security all these metrics you're suggesting can be manipulated in the source code. No access to the internet, use both encryption and hashing to preserve the confidentiality of the vote and the integrity.
I think using a digital signature which would give you all three elements (confidentiality, Integrity, and Non Repudiation) the problem is it's not scalable and will require network access for a centralized server as the key exchange for the voting machines.
So anything you do to digital voting machines will be dependent on other security countermeasures, this adds additional complexity.
It reminds me of NASA spending 3 million dollars for a pen that can right in space. The Russians just used a pencil.
Keep things simple as it worked for many of moons are best.
I agree but I’m thinking more so for the hand counting happening in audits we have now
