Foreign Correspondent In Reno Says 2016 Election Is Like A 'Soap Opera' - Reno Public Radio

Many voters are glad to see this election come to an end. But as Reno Public Radio’s Anh Gray discovers at one polling site on Election Day, an audience thousands of miles away has found the process quite gripping.

At a polling site at Reno High School, I ran across a foreign correspondent from Sydney, Australia. Charles Miranda says Sydney's newspaper The Daily Telegraph sent a dozen reporters to the U.S. to cover the election.

“We are obsessed about the Clinton/Trump election. For so many reasons it ticks off all the boxes with our newspaper readers. It’s just so weird; it’s so wacky," Miranda explains. "It’s unbelievable in many respects; it doesn’t matter what country or what language it’s in, it is a great soap opera."

Miranda says Australians can’t get enough of the election drama.

“They’re two fascinating characters and I think the script for the election has had so many ins and outs, and twists and turns," Miranda says. "It’s fascinating. In their own right, they’ re strange. There’s a lot of controversies for both characters so that’s very unusual in itself, but they’re parodies of the great American dream coming apart, so we’re here to see that.”

Several reporters from the BBC were also in town to cover the election.
