We are collecting newspaper frontpages and headlines for November 5th from all over the world. This US Presidential election has excited millions not only in the US but around the world as well.It will be great if you can share the excitement and news from your part of the world.
So, we will greatly appreciate if you can save the first page of your local newspaper for November 5th (or day when US election results are announced) and send it on to the following address :

We plan to make a physical and online collage once we have assembled it together. This is a huge project that we are undertaking and will require people from all over the world to help us accomplish it.Please send this onto your friends. We also welcome comments on this blog. We will keep you updated on the progress of the project along with an ongoing map of where the papers are coming from.

Bhavana and anyone else who wishes to help. If you know someone who lives in another city in the US that has a local paper or in another country, please send them this link or request them to save the paper for that day & send it to us.
