Americans went to the polls in unprecedented numbers to elect their 44th President. Appealing to voters from diverse backgrounds, Barack Obama won the majority of the popular vote and specifically the female, black, and latino votes. Approximately 1 in 10 voters voted for the first time, and Obama's campaign was particularly successful mobilising American youths and ethnic minorities. Spontaneous public gatherings across the United States celebrated Barack Obama's acceptance of the nomination. Bush Radio went to the Cape Town streets to ask for public opinion on the election of the first African-American to the US presidency.
Two of Bush Radio’s American trainees Christine Potts and Glen Oviatt took to the streets of Cape Town’s CBD in order put together a package about how people feel about the first African-American president, Barack Obama.
