Got it. Something went wrong in OCR, so they had to do manual checkups on 65% of ballots. Seems a bit high for a working system, but hey.
So you get two people in a room, one representing every party, and go through the ballots (300 are in question?), and check them by hand.
(Slight problem that you do this based on scans and not on paper ballots (*jesus*) but lets say, not all that bad.)
Next year you throw out the voting system for good please...
Integrity of the vote still preserved.

Two comments - no failsafes on 'person voted for two people' is understandable, if you got elections, where more than one 'thing' can be checked per ballot. You want the system to work in that case as well.
No failsafes in case of 'nothing' checked on the ballot is understandable, because - well self explanatory really.
So now your main argument becomes - supervisor can override the votes.
Which means, you trusted the machine more, to get them right, than the humans running the election office? Which is the opposite of what Trumps lawyers said?
So now its not dominions machines changing the votes from Nicaragua, sorry Venezuela, now its the people that actually have to do the vote counting (adjudication) by hand?
Again - some of this comes down to -- 'problem sits in front of screen', and if you are too dumb to have democratic elections.
Also - the 65% error rate. Really means you should throw out the systems (if nothing was visibly wrong with those ballots). In fact, in general, just throw the stuff out and vote on paper ballets and count manually - then you have less layers that could go wrong, and at least everyone understands whats happening.
