Answer:

Recently, several opposition parties have been accusing the PRI of paying citizens to bring them INE cards so they can cast ballots in the July elections. These payments have included cash, grocery gift cards, and electronic currencies. While this does not imply that they will not vote or that the PRI will vote in their place, they would still register them to ensure that they do, in fact, vote for the PRI by having them pose for a picture on the ballot.
