Or because there are very good reasons to not have online voting, like vote buying and voter intimidation could become a thing again:

Not that I don't think there is way to get the best of both worlds. I'm sure there's a way for us to vote without having our votes be made public, so things like vote buying and voter intimidation can't happen, especially with blockchain technology. Or perhaps those factors won't matter as much any more, and are actually acceptable factors when compared to voter suppression through poorly placed and managed polling locations. Either way, it's not as simple as it may seem.

How are vote buying and voter intimidation enabled by online voting more than absentee voting?

How about make it private + opt-out (where opt out is used in conjunction with straw polls to determine whether an audit is necessary?)
