To make such a change would require a person to obtain direct database access to our secure server. Moreover, when a voter casts her vote, she will receive an email with a digital signature of the ballot she cast. At any point in the future, she can verify that her encrypted ballot has not been modified by verifying that the digital signature in the email she received matches the current digital signature of the ballot in the poll database. (This verification is done simply by clicking a link in the confirmation email that BallotBox sends each voter when a ballot is cast.
