Lab #10: Votes!


For this lab, we asked people of all ages, gender, and race how much money they sould sell their permanent right to vote for. The majority of people said that they would not sell their vote or would never give up their right to vote. Many of the responses varied. One person said that they do not believe in voting, thus would definitely sell their vote for as much money as they could get. Others said that they would not give up their vote because they liked to worked and like to have a voice. Some even said that they would sell it for $0. Woah!
We were shocked by the number of people that said they would not sell there vote. Since only half of U.S. Citizens vote we were amazing to find out over half of the people we asked valued there right to vote enough to not sell it. one of the things we noticed in this section of the project was that many people would have sold there right to vote were it not for this past presidential election.
