Well good luck voting-out the government that controls that system.

This is what is done in essentially all of the Western world (except USA and the UK) and it works just fine with free and fair elections and peaceful transfers of power.

>and peaceful transfers of power.

Yep, this is something the US can no longer claim, sadly.

In the Netherlands at least, you just get a voting card sent to you by mail, and you have to hand that in to vote. Since you just have a single card, you can only vote once.

Unless you get someone else's card and forge their signature on the back side, which is a permission form indicating that you can vote on their behalf; I don't believe there's enough checks and balances in place for this voting-on-behalf-of system, but then again I don't know what checks and balances there are.

True, the guard rails there are that you can only do that for at most 2 people, limiting the impact of potential fraud there.

How does the electoral commission knows where to send the voting card? Does the voter need to register with some electoral commission (governmental agency)?

The government already knows where people live. Every time you move, you have to notify your municipality.

We just had an election in BC, Canada, and the way it worked here is that everyone has a "home" polling location which is responsible for ensuring that their vote is counted once and only once.

If the distributed system is not partitioned, you can show up to vote anywhere and they tell your home precinct that you've voted; then during vote counting the precinct where you voted tells your home precinct "add the following to your vote totals".

If the system is partitioned -- either from network outages or remote polling locations or mail-in ballots -- then your ballot goes into an envelope and is physically sent to your home precinct in the week following the election, to be verified and included in the count.

But what if I vote three times in three different locations all different from my "home" polling location?

If the network is connected, the first time you vote succeeds and marks you as having voted; subsequent attempts fail because they know you've already voted.

If the network is not connected, your three remote ballots go into envelopes marked "dh2022" and in the week following the election they are physically transported to your home polling location, at which point they see that you tried to vote three times, set those ballots aside, and call the police.

This breaks the anonymity of the vote, marks can be traced back to real people.

It also allows fraud by voting for people who didn't show up.
