Spoof Awards 2021: Most Likely to Get My Vote Award
The winner of this year’s “most likely to get my vote award,” goes to John Hinton. While other politicians seem to have drifted from the understanding of what voters really want, Hinton gets it. It’s money.
Hinton, in what he described as a prank, sent a personal note and a bank note ($1 bill) to a friend, asking him for his vote. And he did so without drawing the ire of the North Carolina Board of Elections. After a short investigation, the board found insufficient evidence of a violation of vote buying.
Needless to say, voters are eagerly awaiting his upcoming exploits in local politics. Hopefully with current inflation, voters can look forward to even more incentive to cast a Hinton vote.
