I'm curious how you all are seeing the Vote Trading schemes that different groups are using. If you're unfamiliar with the practice, the basic idea is for a supporter of third party candidate registered in a battleground state, to 'trade' their vote with a voter from a non-battleground state. So, let's say I support Gary Johnson, but also think Trump is very dangerous and should never be in charge. Living in Pennsylvania (a battleground state) I could agree to hold my nose and vote for Clinton, and a voter in a state where Hillary has a big lead will agree to vote for Johnson. Here's one of the sites I've seen doing this: http://www.trumptraders.org

Do you think this is a reasonable workaround for an unreasonable voting system? Or is it voter fraud? I'm pretty sure selling votes is illegal - but trading?
