Chile has a very good election system and there's basically no machine input in the process.
What's important is being able to segment the population in enough voting places so that each voting place is maneaganle just by a small number of people. The Chilean system is scalable because you can always just add more voting places as the population grows.
Usually these voting places are civic centres, stadiums, schools.
It's a good system and generally for a presidential election we get the results in about 4 hours after voting ends.
