Ballot Drop Day Weekend
Voter Assistance Event

 

Did you know that US citizens living abroad can start voting in this November’s election from September 21st?

Do you need help requesting your ballot or have questions about returning your ballot?

Then come to the Democrats Abroad Ballot Day Weekend Voter Assistance Event!

Date: Sunday, September 22nd
Time: Between 1 pm and 5 pm in hourly increments
Location: Upon RSVP

(5 min walk from Holborn Tube Station - on Central Line & Piccadilly Lines; 9 mins from Temple -  on Circle & District Lines)

**********

Voting from abroad is different from using an in-state absentee ballot.

If you request a ballot using the Federal Postcard Application (which you can do at VotefromAbroad.org) your local election official is required by law to send that ballot to you 45 days before the election.

This year, that is Saturday, September 21st.

If you have ticked the option for the ballot to be emailed to you, you should find it in your email inbox from September 21st.

(Do check your spam folder)

Democrats Abroad will have trained voting assistance officers on hand to provide expert help on how to vote from abroad.

Need help on the Saturday?

Join us at Damn Yankee Wine Bar in Central London to celebrate Ballot Drop Day or get support with any ballot issues you have.

This social gathering and voter assistance event is for:

• American voters to visit with one another and chat about the election
• Attendees can get the resources and information needed to encourage other overseas voters to submit their ballots
• Voters who haven’t received their ballot to get the support needed to request their ballot or contact their local election official
• Voters who have received their ballots to get the support needed to answer questions about submitting their ballot

To RSVP and for full details, visit our Ballot Drop Day Saturday Social page.
