We vote by mail. My ballot will come about 14 days before the election, I will fill out a little Scantron sheet, enclose it in a secrecy envelope, sign the outer envelope, and then I will mail it back or coordinate with my SO and roommates to collect all of our ballots and go turn them in to a drop box. I don't have to leave the comfort of my own home, and I get my vote in well ahead of election day. Plus, because of the Scantron, there is a paper record of my vote, but it's also electronically processed (creating an electronic record).

Easy peasy. By the way, I've never voted at a real polling place; we've been doing vote-by-mail since the late 90s, before I was of voting age.
