Unfortunately, voting fraud occurs even with in-person voting at the voting booths. Here election observer committees are made up of representatives of the various parties, and there are reports of the deals that split the votes of people who did not show up at the voting booth.

There was a proposal to install cameras on the voting booths, but it was rejected by the high court.

Surprisingly e-voting can solve these low-tech corruption problems, but it introduces a much larger attack surface.

Voting fraud might occur in any way, but I think it's quite obvious that from this point of view voting booths are better than mail voting.
