Swing Vote- 1st Period


Answer the following questions.
1. How does Greenleaf's campaign manager deflect from Greenleaf's negatives to the Presidents?
2. What do you think of Molly's speech?
3. Why is there an issue with Bud's "vote" and why do you think people are not supposed to know he is the "irregular vote"

More questions will be added as the movie continues

  1. Greenleaf's campaign manager makes sure to elaborate the question bluntly. I think Molly's speech was very educated for her age, and was genuinely thoughtful. Bud's vote was irregular, because the machine malfunctioned. This means that his vote may be re-cast. And if people know that his vote decides the next president, then the country will pressure him to vote a certain way.

    1. The two campaigns are trying to win his vote, because it decides go wins the election. The candidates are changing their platforms to win Bud's vote. They're not afraid of offending anybody because everyone else has already voted. The candidates are willing to sell themselves out for a vote if it means they win the election.
