I definitely see the point here, but it depends on what you mean by “understand”. I don’t think that understanding blockchain or the technical components of how such a system works would be important to the average voter.

If such a system could improve the visibility and auditability of results down to small regions, and intuitively show how that cascades up to state level results, it could be a win.

Making an e-voting system believable seems more like a UX/design challenge than a technical/engineering challenge.
