Trying to imitate the framer’s?

Back in the day, elections were won by the candidate that gave the electorate the most booze.

Because of it, James Madison lost a bid for the House.

candidate for Chicago mayor, handed out cash to potential voters Sunday morning at a church

I think that should be a hanging offense. Trial optional. Totally breaks the social contract/Constitution.

Nothing new in the RAT capitol of the world.
Daley did it for years and got away with it.

They’ve always done that, it’s called walking around money. They hand out cigarettes too.

Willie Wilson also ran for president in 2016. There’s still one of his billboards on Diversey Avenue in Chicago.

Must be fake!

I have always heard that ‘they would line up to San Francisco’ for free money.

The line was not that long.

No, campaign finance violation of the type only Trump would be prosecuted for in the media.

Isn’t that called ‘vote buying’? No different from buying alcohol or giving away free phones, etc.

Why not just stand out side the local bars on election day and help voters to get drunk so they will vote your way?

Call it whatever you want; it’s an old Chicago tradition.

You’re not against old conservative traditions, are you?
Or anti old conservatives?

When my Father was a kid living in New Jersey, he said the Union Bosses would be handing out $5 Bills on Election Day telling People to Vote Democrat.
