Vote trading, often referred to as logrolling, involves two or more voters exchanging votes to ensure mutual benefit in an election. For example, one voter agrees to support another's candidate in return for similar support. The legality of vote trading varies by jurisdiction, with some areas considering it a legitimate form of political strategy and others viewing it as a violation of election laws. While it can be seen as a pragmatic approach to achieving electoral goals, it raises ethical concerns regarding fairness and transparency, as well as potential conflicts with principles of genuine voter choice and representation.
