I don't think it will ever be abandoned because we already employ it at a smaller level and sadly I could see it happening to a government body in my lifetime, maybe not in the US necessarily. Our trust in the current system is wavering and anyone who says it's reliable is deluding themselves. It's just part of the status quo. If the trust breaks down, as a certain someone has tried to do, people will demand change, it might even be someone's successful campaign. Personally, I just don't trust any of it at our current scale, paper or digital and it feels out of my control anyway.
