The receipt shows you voted, not how you voted. It’s a strip of paper along your ballot; marks go elsewhere.

That sounds completely useless, other than confirming that some action was taken and making you feel good.

I could see the potential usefulness of a receipt that was in a locked drop safe for audit/internal control purposes.
