Was your vote influenced by the foreign media?

The BBC Online Magazine has a piece today that asks:

American expats in Britain are choosing their president. Can they help but be influenced by widespread anti-Bush feeling in Europe?

That seems like an easy answer to me (of course we are influenced by it) but I suppose it may depend on the individual. More from the article:

Whatever their differences, the Republican and Democrat campaign teams are agreed on one thing - the British media.

"The press is definitely more pro-Kerry than pro-Bush," says Sharon Manitta of Democrats Abroad UK.

"We get to see more news stories that have a definite slant than the right wing, sadly, mainstream media in America."

Can't argue with that one. Check out the rest of the article for some vox pops with various UK-based expats of both political persuasions.
