It's not about the voting method. These people want to invalidate votes they don't like. Arizona Republicans went on a wild goose chase of looking for bamboo fibers in printed ballots which would "prove" they were printed in China.

From what I know about American politics I can believe their motive is to invalidate votes they don't like instead of actually preventing election fraud.

My suggestion of paper voting is a tongue-in-cheek recommendation for them to prevent election fraud because it would prevent them from being the ones to do it (at scale).
