Re: Bought votes?

One thing I've never seen a solution to when e-voting is mentioned is how you handle the problem of vote buying

In a similar way that Google handles AdWords!? Auction the digital votes off in The Market, of course!!

Google, FaceBook, et. cetera. they have those digital avatars of us all, which supposedly knows us much better than we know ourselves, so is it not much more efficient if those avatars could join political parties and vote on "the issues"? I think it is!

I think that politcal parties (and other commercial interests) would pay well to get sets of nice, segmented, digital voters - even if it was as a subscription service - VAAS!!
