Last week we were joined by two international journalists who flew in to the Star City to cover the presidential election from the Roanoke Times newsroom.

In the time they’ve been here, Reem Yousuf Al-Harami, from Qatar, and Elham Mustafa A.Salih, from Sudan, have gotten to cover visits to the Roanoke Valley by Mitt Romney, Bill Clinton and Joe Biden.

And today, of course, they’re covering the actual election.

The two are part of a program sponsored by the International Center for Journalists, which has placed reporters in newsrooms throughout the battleground states.

If you want to read coverage of tonight’s election by those participants, they’re posting in a live blog at ICFJ’s website.

Reem and Elham will wrap up their time in Roanoke tomorrow.
