Oh, get over themselves. GOTV is part of the process of elections. Anyone running for office who doesn't offer rides, spearhead voter registration among friendlies, etc. doesn't deserve to win because they don't understand their constituencies.

The drinks thing is a little icky, but election day rallies at restaurants and bars is absolutely normal. Depending on how the invitation was worded it might have just sounded like buying votes with drinks. And by the way, voting is private, so if someone wanted their free drinks AND wanted to vote for the other guy that would absolutely be their prerogative.
