I'm using general, broad wording in the proposal because I'm concerned that if I do not do so, those people who want to find a reason to disallow e-voting will claim that the wording passed doesn't actually accomplish it, by citing narrow interpretations.

I still don't think "written ballot" disallows "ballot submitted through electronic means such as a web site," unless "written" also disallows someone filling out their ballot by using a typewriter or something like that, which seems silly to me. If, for instance, A4 had produced their PDF of the site selection ballot with fields in which you could type responses (they didn't, but it's understandable; Acrobat Pro is expensive), then if you used Acrobat to fill in the form, would it still be a "written ballot?" I think so.
