Why: The “Obama Bridge Project” is the brainchild of Meredith Wheeler, an American expat and Obama supporter who spearheaded the project from her home in rural France. Bridge venues have included the Pont Neuf in Paris, the Millennium Bridge in London, the Charles Bridge in Prague, the Pone Vecchio in Florence, Italy, the Nelson Mandela Bridge in Johannesburg, South Africa, and many other bridges across the world, including bridges in Tokyo, Sydney, Bangkok, Vancouver, and Buenos Aires.

“The enthusiasm of Americans around the world for Barack Obama comes right through in these photographs,” said Wheeler. “His election would do so much to restore the tarnished image of the United States.”

Sunday’s event is open to all residents, whether they are U.S. citizens or not.

Everyone who wants to show their support for Barack Obama is welcome. The idea behind this is that bridges unite opposite sides and bring people together, as we feel Obama will do, not only in America, but across the world.”

Local U.S. residents who wish to register for the election can go online at www.VoteFromAbroad.org

Voter Registration Assistance at FCC-Phnom Penh every Saturday in September from 2 to 6pm

Hope to see you there!
