Swing Vote (2008)

Plot: Bud Johnson is an amiable, completely unmotivated working-class guy coasting through life in a small New Mexico town, completely reliant on his mature, sharp-witted young daughter, Molly, to keep their household together. When a dramatic sequence of events on Election Night results in a complete tie across the nation, the entire United States presidential election down to a single, uncounted ballot—Bud's. Overnight, this ordinary underachiever becomes an international media sensation as both frantic presidential candidates, alongside their aggressive campaign managers, descend on the small town. They resort to absurdly desperate lengths to win over his single, history-making vote, transforming a regular election into a hilarious, circus-like media war where one man holds the fate of the entire free world.
