44. 50 Grand? I'd Take It.
I know every vote counts, but I'd think the chances one in a billion that my one lost vote would change the outcome of the election I was voting in. Therefore, I'd be a fool to not take a free 50 grand based on meaningless principle.

I would not take it, however, if the race was soooooooo close that my one vote might definitely make the difference, or if it wasn't just me being offered the 50g, but a ton of voters, thereby really reducing the number of dem votes because we were bought off. But if it was just me, and everybody else was to vote legitimately, fuck yeah, I'd take it.
