The problem is, that the average citizen does not understand what 'deterministic build' means. One aspect of an election is as a ritual to legitimize the government, and this legitimization currently rests on the argument that in principle every voter could verify the election process. (It is a ritual because no average voter does something like that.) So technology will not help, unless you can change the perception of the function of elections.
