Swing Vote

A precocious young girl uses her vote in a crucial presidential election to influence the candidates and her own father, a lovable but irresponsible man. When her father's vote is the deciding factor, the two main presidential candidates descend upon their small town, showering them with favors and attention. This satirical comedy explores the power of a single vote and the absurdity of modern political campaigning.
