Combinatorics Difficulty 7.0 National Olympiad, round 2 Prove it Hungary

Let GG be an arbitrarily chosen finite simple graph. We write non-negative integers on the vertices of the graph such that for each vertex vv in GG the number written on vv is equal to the number of vertices adjacent to vv where an even number is written. Prove that the number of ways to achieve this is a power of 2.
