> bribing someone to vote against their own preference,
The preferences are not as strong I suspect. If someone out there offered tens of thousands in relocation packages, stipends, other assistance, I imagine a lot of people would be joining that party, whatever the party is.
"Go tell this org that you are voting this way and you need help moving and you get $50k to move to Georgia" you don't think the party won't find a lot of "helpers" all of the sudden.
At that point that's not very different than handing out coupons or gift cards locally.
Just like you can wrap up the relocation package in a language that makes it "legal", can wrap up handing out gift cards in a similar language. "We just want you to go out and vote, here is a restaurant card, and a free Uber trip, and a free, an amusement park ride tickets,..." etc but you can reach a lot more "voters"t that way.
