- boomboomsubban 4y agoAnybody trying to intimidate you or buy your vote could demand you prove you voted correctly by giving your number.
- dormento 4y agoThese things may seem farfetched, but happen very often in certain parts of the world. Here very recently the Federal Road Administration was caught stopping buses in regions where the left leaning presidential candidate had the strongest support. We also had a few tens of cases where business owners were discussing strategies on how to get their employees to vote for the right-wing candidate, and some strategies depended on breaking the law by taking you smartphone to the voting booths and taking a picture (breaking the law in the process).
