emrinalexander's Election Day Challenge
“Lex, you can’t force people to vote.”
“I’m not forcing anyone to do anything; I am merely encouraging them to fulfill their duty as citizens.”
“Giving every LuthorCorp employee an extra vacation day if they vote? That’s almost as bad as that time that you went through the parking lot and made a list of all the people with dirty cars.”
“Clark, that was completely different. It was valuable insight into employee morale and productivity. You can determine a lot about a man by how he treats his vehicle.”
“But, but you...nevermind. My point is that this could be seen as bribery.”
“I hardly think that rewarding people for exercising their democratic rights could be construed as bribery.”
“Lex, you’re running for President. They’re gonna feel like they have to vote for you.”
“I should hope that they feel that way already.”
