'I think one of the things I've found about America is they love to pick their sides.'

Transcript

00:00I caught up with Aussie husband and wife James and Emily Snowball to get their

00:05perspective as Australians living in DC.

00:08It's quite polarised, it feels like at the moment.

00:11It's very much two big campaigns and two polarised sides of the U.S.

00:16In general it's still day-to-day activities just with this sort of

00:20overbearing sense that something might happen.

00:24Yeah, obviously can't vote as an Australian here at the moment in DC

00:28but I'm just hopeful that whoever is picked to become the next president

00:33it's just calm and friendly and there's a nice handover between the two.

00:39And I'm hopeful that each, whoever the candidate is that wins will

00:43keep up with what they've promised and that it will actually help us moving

00:47forward living here in America as well.
