Democrats Abroad 2024 Global Presidential Primary in Aarhus


Attention Americans living in Denmark:
Your vote counts! And did you know you can vote in person? Democrats Abroad Denmark invites you to celebrate our democracy by casting your ballot IN PERSON at our polling station in Aarhus on March 9, 2024, at Dokk1 Møderum 2 (Hack Kampmanns Plads). Voting will take place from 11:00 am to 3:00 p.m.

Democrats Abroad is considered an official state party within the Democratic Party, and we will be holding our own Global Presidential Primary elections in March 2024. Democrats Abroad will send 21 delegates from around the globe to represent our party in Chicago, Illinois from August 19 - 22, 2024 at the Democratic National Convention. The presidential candidate for November 2024 will be selected there. Don’t miss the opportunity to let your vote count in what might be the most important election of your lifetime!

Come vote and celebrate democracy with us! Please invite and share this with your American friends and colleagues.

SOME FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 
***Who is eligible to participate?***
Democrats Abroad has just a few requirements for voting in the primary:
- Be abroad and be a U.S. citizen
- Be a member of Democrats Abroad
- Be 18 years old as of November 5, 2024
- Have not voted, or plan to vote, in any other 2024 state presidential primary.

***What if I’m not a member of Democrats Abroad?***
You can sign up any time between now, up to, and including the day of the primary to vote in the Global Presidential Primary. Democrats Abroad allows same-day registration for voters participating in the Global Presidential Primary. Voters may register in person or by signing up here. (https://www.democratsabroad.org/join.)

*** I can’t attend the event but I want to vote. What can I do? ***
As long as you’re a member of Democrats Abroad, you can also vote remotely. Use https://www.votefromabroad.org/, to request your ballots from the US and request a remote ballot for the Global Presidential Primary. If you've already used VoteFromAbroad, you can request your GPP ballot using the form on this page:
https://www.democratsabroad.org/2024primary.

Remote ballots will arrive in your inbox starting February 13, 2024. 

*** Can I vote in the Global Presidential Primary and in my home state’s primary? ***
You can only vote once in the presidential primary. That means that if you vote in the Global Primary you can still vote in your home state down-ballot primary races (such as for your congressperson). Just skip the presidential question on your home state’s ballot.

***I’ve already requested to receive my overseas absentee ballots for this year from my home state. Why should I participate in the Democrats Abroad Global Presidential Primary instead of voting in my home state’s presidential primary?***
While thousands of people will participate in the Global Presidential Primary this year, millions will vote in your home state. That means that, as an individual, your primary vote with Democrats Abroad is more powerful than if you were to vote in, say, California — in fact, 4 times more powerful!

In addition, Dems Abroad votes earlier than a lot of other states (including Florida, Illinois, Ohio, New York, and Pennsylvania), meaning that you have an earlier chance to shape the outcome of the primary process by voting with us.
