This was a short yet very informative survey. I feel as if the title really reaches out to the reader and makes it much more personal. There was definitely no waste of space with this infographic as the information that was used was very straight to the point and helped the reader understand the bigger picture. Other than that I thought that the use of visuals was very well done. Great Job!

Loved the colors and sort of whimsical feel of it. It was a very simple design, but every eye catching. I liked that you didn’t over do it. I also liked that you targeted Bexar county. The information was too the point and very informative. It was nice to add the QR code so you could start voting. Overall, great infographic.

I think the message of your project is absolutely right Haley. We all need to exercise our voice and remind our representatives that they work for us! They need to listen to our needs because we’re the ones that put them in office. I appreciate you linking a way to form a plan to go out and vote, that’s extremely helpful. It’s sad that Bexar county has such large population amount that does not vote. However with your infographic and informing others how powerful voting can be I believe we can change that.

This infographic was such an easy and effective read which I feel is extremely important when reading about vital topics such as voting. When speaking on this topic it’s so important to give information as easily as possible because of the impact it can have on communities who need it. The power we hold as the public to elect leaders who support the community’s beliefs is our responsibility to seek out.

I loved the color scheme. The infographic Using Your Power is very informative and impactful. It was direct, educational, and engaging. Excellent job, including website addresses, and the QR code. I am delighted that you are addressing Why Your Vote Matters. The infographic featured topics such as Make Them Hear You and Rally Up, a call to action. Good job Haley.

I liked your infographic I would have liked to see more information. 1.) Who was not voting the most based on gender, age, race? —> that would give the reader more context and target a specific audience 2.) Bring up solutions to issues –> if you didn’t vote this reason because you couldn’t find a place to vote or … you can do this next time to be better prepared 3.) Pictures are also good ways to get a point across. I liked the graphics but pictures would’ve been nice too. good job!

I loved the title of this infographic “Using Your Power”, it caught my attention and made me want to read more. The blue, greenish colors made it fun to look at. I also enjoyed the facts that were given in the beginning, the QR code was interesting because it gives the reader a faster way to go to the website and learn more. Overall, great job!

“Using your Power” is such a good title it really caught my attention. Loved the little stars around the title. This infographic is very straight to the point which can be helpful especially in the topic of voting. The subtitles are very eye catching and can easily find information on what someone is looking for. Although it is a good infographic, I do wish it had more information on different ways to rally up and how to promote more voting.

Hello Haley that opening statistic really drives home the importance of why your vote matters when less than half of registered voters vote it’s almost like your voting for 2 people. Helpful QR Code , well organized sources, good use of color and well laid out information without it being overcrowded, icons used to demonstrate points made, as well as the infographic was easy to read and to the point.

I absolutely love the theme of your infographic. It was easy to understand and read and well put together. The graphics were helpful and nice to look at, but I wish pictures were included. I believe they could have helped visual learners. Great Job Haley!
