Scoop: Bud Johnson, an apathetic, beer-slinging, lovable loser, is coasting through a life that has passed him by. The one bright spot is his precocious, over-achieving twelve year-old daughter Molly. She takes care of both of them, until one mischievous moment on Election Day, when she accidentally sets off a chain of events which culminates in the election coming down to one vote--her dad’s.
If a Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words, We Say: Nobody likes a back seat driver. Even less, a back seat voter. With the mass amounts of mail it appears that the public has spoken...well, written...and everyone has a say on who the final vote should go to. That's a lot of pressure. Good thing he has his mini-me to help with the decision.
