refined story...

THE OTHER HALF MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE. Despite greater registration due to governement outreach, the total voter turnout has continued to descrease. Over the past 40 years, voter registration has been increasing, however, voter turnout has been decreasing. I want to show that the other half matters because so many surveys show that one of the main reasons people chose not to vote is because they do not think their vote will matter or have any effect on the election. Due to this belief, half of our country does not take the time to go vote. I want to show that it does count by showing graphics, teams, objects, something that needs the other half. I want it to be very simple and clean, very obvious. For example I might have a bride with out a groom. Something with the obvious need for “the other half.” My last frame will have the text “the other half makes a big difference.” Right before this final text I will have the number of voting age citizens vs. the number of people who did not vote.
