And your next problem kind of becomes buying voters. Find people who value a money over voting and will sell you their vote.
Australian politicians who speak languages other than English literally target community voters who cannot speak English and give them pre-signed ballots to sign. (To clarify, this is branch stacking and less so normal elections). Illegal - but no one caught has had anything happen.
Democracy is largely an illusion today. It’s not fair. It’s not the voice of people. It’s a game that people exploit - the same people who have power, to give themselves new laws, and to keep the game going.
Slight tangent… however voting is very hard to solve fairly and reliably.
