Where're your bribes, SGH? Don't pretend you're too dignified to have any.
I do not, and will not resort to bribery. And as far as Jonathan being bribed for his vote, he is running for office. Why wouldn't he cast his vote for himself?

You call it a 'thank you.' I call it a 'bribe.'

Ah, it's just ice cream or chocolates. Only slightly better than little buttons or notepaper.

It's still a bribe beacause you told people before the voting. People may want ice cream after they vote, so they'll vote for you. If you said after the voting "Hey, everyone who voted for me will get ice cream!" then it wouldn't be a bribe.

Oh pleeeese, I will not let my vote be decided by bribery or by who can shout the hardest, I cast my vote based on the campaign points and maturity of the candidates, if any. And I prefer milk chocolate anyway.

Hey! Don't think I was, in anyway, saying that bribes are a bad thing. I myself have been swayed by several. I was just stating that it was actually a bribe and not a 'thank you' promise.

Maturity of the candidates? I'm afraid none of the candidates fullfill your demands (though undoubtly Jerseydevil will soon be here to tell us how mature Jonathan is). Maturity is a way of looking at life.
