Methods and associated systems provide proof of a ballot cast in an election or of user choices under a data structure. The method includes, for example, casting a ballot representing a voter's intended choice associated with a cast ballot, and creating a private, paper receipt that represents the voter's intended choice associated with the cast ballot. The private, paper receipt includes human-readable information to permit the voter to publicly verify that the cast ballot has been included in a ballot tabulation process, and wherein only the voter can discern from the human-readable information on the private, paper receipt what the voter's intended choice was, with respect to the cast ballot. |
