Democrats Abroad - Global Presidential Primary 2024

Super Tuesday in the U.S. marked the beginning of the weeklong Democrats Abroad global presidential primary, a time when Americans living outside the country can make their voices heard as expats. The Democrats Abroad function similarly to a state Democratic Party, and they send delegates to the Democratic National Convention. Voters can cast a ballot in the global primary, then vote in their home states for local elections. In Basel, Americans who want to vote, or who want to learn more about the primary, can attend an event on Saturday, March 9, 2024, at L'Atelier Basel. It begins at 11:00 AM and runs until 3:00 PM.

Democrats Abroad National Vice-Chair David Heaps and Basel Chapter President Liz Voss joined our show to discuss the primary, Saturday's event, and how to vote from abroad. Listen to the interview below.

More information is on the Democrats Abroad website. And more information about voting while living outside the U.S. is at the Vote From Abroad website. The Democrats Abroad will also be at the Expat Expo, and visitors can get more information about voting.
