A variation on this theme that would overcome most of the concerns I raised:
Have a sheet of transfers instead of stickers. Have a box beside each candidate.
Place a transfer above that box and scratch to transfer it onto the ballot.
Being simple ink instead of a sticker it cannot be removed and cannot stick
things together. It can be dry and indelible instantly.
