Well, they are specifically doing a call to action to vote, part of their "offer" is that you make a plan to vote. But they aren't saying you have to vote for a specific party.

Merely paying you to vote at all is illegal. But they're not doing that - they're paying you to make a plan to vote, to post a tweet and to make a public apology. Nothing says you have to go through with the plan to vote, merely that you make one - and that distinction is the legal line they are walking.

Absolutely, no argument there!

But they aren't requiring people to follow through on the plan.

No, certainly not.
