I am trying to learn more about this topic. I am in California and you can go online and confirm which party your registered to and also if your ballot was received but you cannot find out if your vote was counted as cast... I am trying to decide if there is some shadiness to this or maybe its some kind of a voter privacy issue...

They could easily provide a printed unique ID and then publish the unique ID with the recorded vote. Unfortunately that only covers vote switching. Still need a way to prevent non-existent, non-citizen voting. That would require outlawing general mail-in voting (absentee voting in certain cases still allowed).
I just find it strange that I cannot check my vote was counted exactly like I cast it...
I’m in Australia so it’s different here, but the whole point is that your vote is deidentified. So we can tell IF you voted but nobody should ever be able to see HOW you voted. From outside the US, it seems insane that your vote could ever be counted as anything other than what you cast! We just have paper ballots, you know that if you fill your paper in right that’s how it gets counted.
Well the videos / fraud reports they posted on how the dominion voting machines work - had this process where they scan your ballot and if the machine errors - it gets sent for adjudication and that person can basically select who to vote electronically on your behalf. The new electronic ballot is kept and the original ballot is basically trashed. https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-12-15-antrim-report-reveals-dominion-machines-error-rate.html
It is strange.
