Current Events > $10,000,000, or no one but you votes in the next election you can vote in.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Only government elections count (not eg. company board elections or whatever happens when people do a business at the stock market), but local government counts too. The first one that you're eligible to vote in, you'll be the only person who votes. Somehow, everyone will be okay with this (as long as they would've been okay with the same result arising from normal voting numbers).

Take the $10,000,000 and go to New Zealand. Take a few cool online/offline friends with me and just got stoned for the rest of my days and not care about this politics stuff.

Hey, that's where I live!

Money.

Deffo the money.

I'm in a safe Labour constituency, so my vote is always the majority anyway.

Money. Don't give a damn about this country.

Vote.

Write in Hulk Hogan.

Laugh my ass off for four years.

money is more important than voting lol

Money pls

The money, easily.

Though I will say, the temptation to clone Harambe and vote for him is present.

Money

money. next election here is some local small town primary.

Money. Even if I did actually follow British politics, I don't think there's some super konvenient kandidate poised to fix all the problems with this kountry and that's somehow gonna feel as safe as being a millionaire.

10 mil is enough to not give a fuck who's eleceted.

I dont really need more money so ill take single handedly deciding the next president, senators, congressmen or whatever else I can have a hand in.

To be honest I don't trust myself enough to pick right. Politicians talk a good game then do something different.

I might just pick myself to be president.

Whatever I vote isnt going to get me the life I crave of never having to work anyway, so the choice is obvious.

Money.

But just to clarify, is it the next election that I can vote in (even if I don't), or the next one that I do vote in?

Well in the next election republicans are trying to change the state constitution to explicitly remove the right to get an abortion, so me being the only vote would be worth a lot more than 10M.

Maybe, if I could wait until the presidential election and write in someone like AOC

If you take the vote and people know about it, you'll get shit loads of bribes to vote one way or the other.

I'd take the money though.

The money. The next election is a primary election in a midterm, so that's not gonna matter. Even if it was the primary election in 2016 or 2020, when there was an actually good option, all my vote would do is change one state. If it was a general election and there was a progressive candidate for president, then I'd pick the vote.

Election. I can literally write myself in as US Senator.

Money. I don't want to rig the next election, and I have no desire to vote myself in or anything.

You just take all the bribes and vote how you want. What are they going to do? Take you to court for accepting a bribe that you didn't follow through on?

Money means freedom. I'll take the freedom over the participation in a system that sucks and honestly just keeps you a slave.

You could vote for a 3rd-party or independent who wants to change it, though.

lmfao, you know how many votes for 3rd party assholes I'd have to cast to make real change across the board? One vote won't do that.

Unless you're saying I can literally oust every single worthless politician from the local all the way to the fed. Then maybe...still gotta burn the lobbyists though.

Money by far-- the corporations all own everything anyway, so my vote wouldn't matter that much even if I could single handedly determine the president or something.

Money. As far as Im aware the next election would be whenever the next presidential election is and I couldnt care less about that anyways.

money pls

I don't like fascism and I doubt the problems with this country can be fixed in a single vote anyway, so I'll take the $10 mil and just peace out

Y'know, writing in a joke candidate at every opportunity - thus ensuring that no one actually gets elected and 2/3 of the government ceases to function - might be the cleanest way possible to tear down this broken-ass system and rebuild.

the whole point of voting anyway is gib moni

Can I vote in literally everything nationwide? If so, that. I can pick every outcome of every election nationwide, but also accept donations under the pretense "maybe if you pay me enough, I'll vote for you." Of course, I will still vote how I want to, and I will keep everyone's money. It wpuld be a lot more than 10m.

Definitely the money, that's a local election, and like hell I'm staying in TN if I have 10 million dollars. The only advantage of living here is that its cheap.

Vote for sure. I can vote for someone who pledges to give me 11 million dollars if they win

Easiest money ever in my fucking life

If I had $10 million I wouldn't care of Satan became president. He probably already was

Easiest choice I'll ever make.

Money. I'm an American, and so I believe the right to vote is sacred.
