So let me get this straight, random person gets the mil? But they chose a guy that is a big fan, been following him for 10 years and doesn't seem extremely excited that he got a million. That's a big WTF.

Federal law has long prohibited providing payments or making expenditures to induce voting, whether or not those inducements are limited to those who might vote for a particular candidate. The Department of Justice’s election crimes manual explains that the law has been interpreted broadly: “The bribe may be anything having monetary value, including cash, liquor, lottery chances, and welfare benefits such as food stamps.” And it explains the reason for the prohibition: “Those who choose to vote have a right not to have the voting process diluted with ballots that have been procured through bribery; and that the selection of the nation’s leaders should not degenerate into a spending contest, with the victor being the candidate who can pay the most voters.” Violations of federal law can lead to imprisonment for a year or more or other penalties.
