The Vote Trader

The Vote Trader is a socio-science fiction drama. Hector is a financial and business expert, working in gray markets in Brooklyn. His partner, Sarah, is a political operative for a Democratic candidate in the race for Senator from New York. When he learns from her that New York now allows individuals to buy and sell votes in political elections (like buyers and sellers do for corporate securities), his eyes light up, and he smells money. Hector, though apolitical, decides to trade in votes in the election for US Senator from New York. At first, he pursues profit, but hijinks ensue, and his single-minded greed collides with civic responsibility.
