Vote buying in Mexico by PRI

If I came away with one thing from my Latin American politics class, it's that PRI's mantra is "Carrots and sticks".  This falls under the "carrots" scenario.


These people are waiting in line after the election to redeem the gift cards they received from PRI on Election Day.

I've always thought it would be cool to sell your vote, as long as the vote is actually secret, as I imagine is in Mexico. I'd just sell it and vote for whoever I want to.
