I voted in the Democrats Abroad Global Primary, do I need to register again?

YES! Democrats Abroad runs its own primary election which decides how Democrats Abroad’s delegates will vote at the Democratic National Convention. It’s just like the presidential primary in your voting state. Our delegates to the convention work to raise awareness of specific issues facing Americans abroad.

Voting in the global primary did not register you to vote in your State’s general election. You should confirm your registration status directly with your state’s board of elections. To find those details go to www.votefromabroad.org/states

Everyone should request their overseas absentee ballot from your US voting state this year. Doing so will ensure that you receive all overseas absentee ballots relevant to you this year — including the general election in the fall, as well as any special elections and local and state primaries.
