      Give me money to potentially sway my vote in a way that helps you. Ok.

      I tell you give me a million and i’ll make that vote happen. Illegal and not ok.

      I’m sure at this point you’re just a troll, but there is a difference there.

        Sway your vote? Man lobbyists hand you the whole prewritten legislation to sponsor for their money. Legal because its going to your election campaign instead of directly to you.
