Used votes

Man: Well, there's lots of used up legislative candidates aren’t there!

Signs read: Election stall, Buy and sell used votes. Documents read: Ballot papers.

With widespread vote buying in the lead up to the April 9 elections, legislative candidates (caleg) whose 'success teams' (read vote brokers) have been unable to secure enough votes prior to polling day are resorting to selling their voter lists to other candidates who stand a better chance of winning.
