Image prompt
Optional prompt if you later generate a custom image manually.
Create a clean LawLinter social graphic about a House roll-call vote. Make the actual vote outcome the dominant visual: result, date, yea count, nay count, and total positions. Make the voted-on legislation obvious near the top: use a dedicated 'Legislation voted on' band with the bill number and short title, not a tiny corner label. Use party breakdown only as smaller supporting context. Subject: House Vote 116-1 Roll Call 531: On Motion to Instruct Conferees. Vote facts: Result: Failed on Sep 17, 2019; Total recorded positions: 432; Yea: 198 (45.8%); Nay: 219 (50.7%); Not voting: 15 (3.5%). Legislation voted on: S 1790 - 116 - National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020. Tone: neutral legislative research, not partisan, not promotional.

Directly beneath the title/result area, include a high-visibility 'Legislation voted on' band with the bill number and short title; it must be readable at mobile size and must not be buried in a footer, corner, or tiny source strip. Place party breakdown in a smaller lower panel so it supports the outcome without competing with it. Hierarchy requirements: - The viewer must understand both what happened in the vote and what legislation was voted on without reading small text. - If legislation is supplied, reserve a clear, readable band or panel for the bill number and short title near the top third of the graphic. - Do not reduce the bill number/title to a footer, source strip, corner badge, or tiny footnote. Style requirements: Use the LawLinter visual identity: dark civic data dashboard, near-black background #0B0F16, elevated panel #111827, secondary panel #162032, border blue #1F6FEB, accent cyan #19C3FF, white text #F8FAFC, muted text #CBD5E1, success teal #14B8A6, warning amber #F59E0B. Make it social-media friendly: use a vertical 2:3 portrait aspect ratio, ideally 1024x1536 or 1080x1620. Keep all important text inside generous safe margins and do not create a horizontal image unless explicitly requested. Prioritize mobile readability: large headline, 3-6 facts maximum, high contrast, no tiny legal text, no overloaded tables. Tone must be neutral legislative research. No partisan framing, no campaign symbols, no unsupported causal claims. Include a small LawLinter wordmark text and source-analysis framing. Use 'source context' wording when data is contextual rather than bill-caused. Vote-color rule: use success teal or emerald for Yea, rose #FB7185 for Nay, amber #F59E0B for Present, and muted slate for Not voting. Do not use colors to imply party preference.
