So assuming you securely distribute the key, who is at the keyboard? Which software company do you trust to develop 53 versions of the software? With Net Neutrality repealed it would be possible/legal for ISPs to slow voting traffic by zip code. They own the network and it is not a public utility. Election tampering aside, repeal of net neutrality is a threat to voting by network. I’m assuming there are versions for iOS 1-infinity, Linux, Unix, Windows ME, etc. Or would it be web based? Distributed servers or housed in one state? Sure the ledger is distributed but the front-end has to be housed someplace. As do the voter registrations. Blockchain is resistant but distributing the information to ledgers and the ledgers themselves are not hack proof. Nevermind here’s this:

I wouldn’t trust that system against a government adversary. And we know Russia has no interest in influencing our elections right?

Well then the answer is simply require everyone to vote in person or by solicited mail in/absentee ballot with proper ID and voter registration.
