Actually (though I don't know the specifics) I don't see why it would be
illegal to sell the ballot. Trying to use it would be outragously
illegal, and probably impossible, but the ballot itself is just a piece of
paper. A piece of paper that may have a growing value among document
collectors...given the current situation. If I had one, I'd wait till
after the dust settles to sell it.
