Group offering Black Belt pastors money ‘per person’ they get to vote early

quote:

Anybody that vote early before October 29th your church will get $6.00 per person, the flyer begins. We will verify if they have registered and checks will be dispersed after October 29th. Please help us spread to word to the local churches in your area. We are asking you to exercise special leadership in the New South March To The Polls Initiative




quote:

The flier was created by the much-maligned Alabama New South Coalition, which has previously come under fire for distributing racially charged and incendiary political rhetoric. The group is predominantly African-American and supports Democratic candidates for office

Is that against the law?

Well I guess it might not be if they aren't endorsing a certain candidate.

Legal or not, this probably happens but most groups aren’t nearly so forward about it.

That’s per trip. I’m sure some of them will make multiple visits to polling stations.

I’m gonna have to go in the booth with Ms. Ethel. She can’t see very good. I just want to make sure she chooses what she meant to.

It’s vote buying like Bloomy trying in Florida. Anything of value for a vote is illegal.

Not much different than buying burgers, etc. and busing students to the polls for JBE with Holder and Obama money.
May be legal, but i enough peeps protest and call out the dems, they would stop.
