You do realize this works as designed?

A cheap, secure, verifiable method (paper ballot) has been replaced by something that can easily and (often) untraceably change the results of the vote (electronic machines) for a reason.

The reason is to keep those currently in power - in power. This must be obvious to everybody by now.
