The Guardian reaches millions of engaged readers around the world, and some of our most exciting work comes when they talk to each other.
As we looked through our coverage of this US election cycle, we realized that this was already happening: people wanted to know what the situation looked like from outside and inside the US, and they had some real questions about what exactly is going on.
And hey, we did too: we asked readers who live outside the US to ask some questions of our American audience. We also asked our American readers to come up with a list for readers abroad. Hundreds of people submitted. We read all of the responses, then edited them into the list below.
The next step is getting some answers. This too will come back to our readers: AKA, you.
If you’re a US citizen, answer as many of the questions posed by our international readers as you’d like. If you’re not a US citizen, answer as many of the questions posed by our US citizens as you’d like – just scroll down to find them. As the responses come in, we’ll read through and again select the most interesting and emblematic to publish late next week.
