Best Answer

A "pocketbook vote" means that someone is voting for the party that has promised them more money, either in lower taxes, lower business fees (for people who own businesses), better employment rates, or actual bribing. This is in contrast to a "moral vote" where a person votes on what policy they believe to be to better, even if it has adverse effects for that particular person.
