You have an account at your bank, you have no account at the federal
election board, let alone the state and local levels.  Now, if you want
to talk about tying a vote to tax account, then you can have my ear. ;)

That doesn't even work in banking.  Try taking a receipt into a bank and
declaring it better than their records.

There are checks and balances, unless you have evidence otherwise.
There has been a lot of innuendo thrown around about the security faults
in the system, but I haven't seen anything that suggest there isn't
checks and balances, in fact I have seen the opposite.  The checks and
balances aren't all implemented in the one singular piece of equipment.
The checks and balances involve layers of managerial procedures, all
spelled out in the SAIC review for Maryland.
