Segment Script:

 (camera slowly moves towards them)

Jordan:
(camera on Jordan- head & shoulder shot) All of the proposals were shot down in the election today in Michigan.

Justin:
(camera on Justin- head & shoulder shot) Collective bargaining was one of the most controversial proposals for this election. It would have granted public and private employees the constitutional right to organize and bargain collectively through labor unions. It also would have taken over the state laws that regulate hours and conditions of employment to the extent that those laws conflict with collective bargaining agreements.

Jordan:
(camera on Jordan- head & shoulder shot) Proposal 6, if approved, would have to be located before the State of Michigan. It could have expanded state funds or resources for acquiring land, designing, soliciting bids for, constructing, financing, or promoting new international bridges or tunnels.

Justin:

Proposal 3:

Proposal 3 is about renewable energy sources. Voters recognize that the states constitution isn't the place for costly energy policy. The rejection is an endorsement that the states existing energy policy is working.  Nearly 2.6 million voters were against proposal 3.


One Academic Standard:
We used math in our newscast. There were lots of numbers for statistics, percentages, etc.
We also used social studies by writing our proposals for the newscast.

























Below is a little extra we made for our election project. We decided to add a commercial in it to make it a little more interesting. My group and I came up with the idea of a Twilight parody. We had way too much fun making this. :)

Here is our final newscast video (Below)
