It would be extremely on-brand for No Labels to impose a poll tax on its own members:

 No Labels, a political organization that has alarmed some Democrats with talk of launching a third-party presidential candidate, has contemplated requiring a donation of at least $100 in order to cast a ballot at the group’s upcoming nominating convention, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

The idea, which breaks from longstanding norms, would raise a significant hurdle to participating in the democratic process — in this case No Labels’ selection of its potential candidates for president and vice president. Neither the Democratic or Republican parties charge to vote at their conventions, where delegates vote for candidates chosen by voters through primaries or caucuses.

Seems appropriate for a racket that above all else wants to cut critical social programs to clear space for upper-class tax cuts. Indeed, it’s surprising that their blood allies in the Republican Party didn’t think of it first.
