A lower third graphic with their name and title transition on briefly -

"Alessandra Flores '23, MLK Scholar at Brandeis University"

They address the camera:

"My name is Alessandra Flores.

I'm a sophomore studying politics here at Brandeis, as well as being a part of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Fellowship and a community advisor on campus and the reason why I vote is because I think it is the most integral part of being a United States citizen.

I remember ever since being a little kid walking with my mom to the voting polls and watching her vote and wanting to do the same whenever we went and voting has always been an important part of my family.

I come from a family of immigrants and so our rights as citizens is really important to us."

The video then transitions out to show a white background where blue text reading "Brandeis University" fades into the screen. A few frames later the text "go.brandeis.edu/votedeis" also fades into the screen after a few seconds the screen fades to black.
