A Democrat super delegate who is a prominent national party member is selling his vote for $20 million and says the money will be used to register and educate Mexican-American voters long neglected by the party.

The California delegate, a retired lawyer who heads the voting rights committee of the Democratic National Committee’s Hispanic Caucus, admits most people might think of him as “some crazy guy in California” for the hefty price tag on his vote. He says the reality is that his own party is crazy for not aggressively pursuing Mexican-American voters.

Is this legal? Can a "Super Delegate" actually sell their vote?

This sounds pretty unreasonable to me.

I don't think the intention was to actually sell it, but generate a few splashes for his cause.

Either way, Hillary Clinton does not have that kind of money anymore.

I do not think it is illegal to sell a delegate vote but I know it is definitely illegal to seek compensation for your vote in any type of government election.
