Logrolling

Logrolling is a political practice where legislators agree to support each other's proposals or policies. Essentially, it's a mutual agreement: "I'll vote for your bill if you vote for mine." This helps secure enough votes for measures that might otherwise struggle to gain support. Logrolling often occurs in legislative bodies, where politicians seek to achieve their goals by forming alliances. While it can lead to the passage of beneficial legislation, it may also result in the approval of less desirable measures simply to secure votes, raising concerns about accountability and transparency in the political process.
