I think in my years of voting I have only
missed about two votes. But I would be very
concerned about giving "Gifts" to get people
to vote.

I can see it now: workers for the candidates
outside the polling places tempting us with
triple frequent flyer miles, upgrades on
Delta L fares, free nights at hotels, etc.

Sorry but that would taint the voting process.

Another interesting observation: have you noted in FlyerTalk several "candidates" for
Freddies like Hilton and Delta have put in
ads "for your consideration" like they do around Oscar time? I guess teh Freddie's as
big for an airline's bottom line as an Oscar
helping revive a hasbin actress's career!
