I love how we’ve managed to come full circle. In the early 1900s buying votes was open and totally normalized.

Literally one of the reasons we switched to a secret ballot (it's less effective to buy votes if you can't know who they voted for) in the first place. The first places to switch started in the 1890s, and the last state to switch over did so in 1950.
