Cash for votes

During the 50's and 60's when Richard Daley was mayor of Chicago the aldermen were given what was called walking around money. They had pockets full of cash which they would hand out to their constituents encouraging them to vote. Daley was the working mans candidate but they tended not to vote. One of the problems was that people would take the money and still not vote. Former NYC Mayor Bloomberg is paying the fines of convicted felons in Florida so they can vote. It would not be wise to just give them the money as they still may not vote. He has to find a way that the money is directly connected with the vote. This may be a little tricky so as not to be accused of buying votes.
