About this movie

Bud Johnson (Kevin Costner) is out of work, out of booze and out of time to win back the admiration of his 12 year old daughter, Molly (Madeline Carroll). It's always been just the two of them against the world but now Bud has given up on life and taken to the bottle.But fate is about to play them a big hand...by casting Bud centre stage at the polling booth and thrusting him into the nation's spotlight.By a cruel twist of fate, Bud's one small vote will determine who will run the most powerful country in the world. Now the two candidates and their campaign managers descend on Bud's small town to try and secure his vote.They'll stop at nothing to win- and this Election Day will be one sobering experience for a little guy who is forced to go up against the establishment.With a warm and witty Capra-esque quality that recalls 'Mr Smith Goes to Washington', Swing Vote proves that winning your daughter's vote is the most important one of all.© 2008 Swing Vote - The Movie Productions, LLC.
