P2P Voting

from the maybe-slightly-illegal dept

So selling your vote is illegal (online or not), but what about trading your vote with another eligible voter? Gore supporters are inclined to think that every vote for Nader is a vote for Bush. But that's really only true in swing states... so what if there were a system to swap non-swing and swing state votes? Ok, so there's really no way to make sure anyone holds up their end of the bargain, but it brings up the questions of how third party voices can be heard most effectively and what role a voter's residence should play in the election....
