One important thing about any voting system – digital or not – is that it has to be good at producing agreeable consent. That means bitter, betrayed and hurt (but reasonable/democratic!) losing parties need to be able to say: yeah we accept the result because we are confident in the outcome of the election.
This is something all digital systems are really bad at, even if everything is readable and verifiable, unless all your members know how to read that code.
Edit: and even if they know how to read that code, can they trust the machines are running that code at the big day?
