MUMBAI: News aggregator Dailyhunt has unveiled its latest election campaign, #EveryVoteCounts, aimed at encouraging citizens to vote. The digital campaign looks to tap into the essence of democracy, reminding citizens of the impact each ballot can have. The goal is to spark a sense of civic duty and responsibility. The campaign’s creators, Bhavesh Kosambia and Rahul Chandwani, explain their inspiration: a tale of a politician’s defeat by a single vote.
Samir Vora CMO DailyHunt said, “When a large number in our population feels that the outcome is a foregone conclusion, many can deem their one vote as inconsequential in the sea of 1.4 billion people. But as history has taught us, nothing in this vibrant democracy can ever be taken for granted and a single vote can turn the tables. We wanted to remind people that #EveryVoteCounts, and inspire them to go out and vote.”
The campaign has been conceptualised and executed by What’s Your Problem – A Wondrlab company
Bhavesh Kosambia and Rahul Chandwani, Content Leads, Wondrlab, said, “We were very excited when we got this brief. It was a tough task to crack something different, something that’ll stand out in all the election noise. We researched and realised a rather interesting story, where a politician had the misfortune of losing by just a single vote. This inspired us to dramatize it. While it is a humorous tale, shot by design with dramatic and OTT acting, it delivers a serious message of how consequential every vote can be. An example of the world’s biggest democracy at play and the power of the common man in it. We want this campaign to encourage people to go out and vote and are sure that it’ll travel and help in moving the needle.”
