You can actually put the ballot in the box. You or someone you trust can stay as an observer until the voting is done. You or someone you trust can watch as the ballots are removed from the voting box and counted.
I think it has been recommended before, if you want to see this, sign up to be a poll observer. You will get to see the whole process.
Thousands of issues of voter fraud, and these are only the instances where they got caught. Polling officials are usually the ones that are responsible for mass voter manipulation, just look at what happened in Iowa and Georgia.
Poll watchers are appointed by political parties. It is not something anyone can sign up for and get to do. Monitors also do not directly prevent electoral fraud.
No they can not. I put my ballot in a locked box filled with other ballots. It's not like I hand my ballot to a person and ask them to please record my vote.
