The receipt could be hashed, but I agree that these machines are a bad idea either way.

not sure how that helps. if you can verify the hash, it means the baddies can verify the hash as well, which means they can still operate a pay-for-receipts-shows-you-voted-for-our-guy program.

Don't make it trivial to verify the hash, after all it only needs to come into play if there is an audit.
