If it can be compromised, it is compromised, so no.
No.
eliminate error-prone manual processes to help ensure election transparency for constituents
Ummm... from what I gather, machine counted votes have a 1488% error rate. Looks to me like we need to take leap back and count votes by hand.
It's very easy to make ballots that are nearly tamper-proof, but you'll never see one because they don't want tamper-proof ballots. It's pretty easy to make sure ballots can't be printed after the fact, but you'll never see that either.
A quick and effective strategy is to simply serialize them. When you detect 2 ballots with the same number, you void both. And you are correct. You'll never see that. It will disenfranchise voters, don't you know.
You don't want to use predictable numbering, though. If you did a nefarious actor could cancel out votes from precincts know to vote a certain way just by injecting duplicate ballots into the system to cause them to be rejected.
No vote is ever counted via any method... How about that? They just pick a guy they want. It's all fake.
