Law students from five countries observed the American voting process in Ada on Tuesday.
The students, who are from Afghanistan, Nepal, Brazil, Bangladesh, and Malawi, are spending the year in Ada studying at the law school for an advanced degree.
They were brought to the polling place by Becky Neville, an administrative assistant at the school.
All of the students are already lawyers in their home countries. The university recently received a $2 million grant to continue the program because of its past success.
Here, poll worker Rich Meininger holds up a sample ballot which the international students photograph with their cell phones.
