So we start a party where we all sign to get each other on the ballot and donate to a pool that allocates $5k to each of us? Can this $5k just be moved around per candidate which counts as spending?

This would become a problem if someone just joined the party with the intent of cashing out the 5k$ and leaving. Maybe you could fix this somehow with smart contracts? idk

Legal escrow! No smart contracts needed

if you cash out the $5k you lose candidate status.

Assign it but don’t physically give it to them?
