I think we can assume quite a long chain of people per box.

And it quickly becomes unmaintenable, "three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead".

Indeed, my back of the napkin was ~1+ conspirator per ballot box, assuming many boxes per polling place.

Making a conspiracy like that work at US scale would require a small country's worth of conspirators which really, really wouldn't be able to hide from the light of day for very long.
