June 21, 2022Our local chapter of Democrats Abroad Sweden proudly marched for LGBTQ pride at West Pride, Saturday 18 June. Remember the ongoing struggles of our LGBTQ brothers and sisters around the world, and remember to vote in the primaries and the November election for LGBTQ-friendly candidates! If you haven't requested your ballots yet, please do so today at http://votefromabroad.org.

Protect kids not guns! Anti-gun-violence meetup 4 June
posted by Joel Parthemore | Western Sweden Secretary
June 12, 2022We had another fun meet-up – unfortunately in response to the repeated (unending?) mass shootings in the States. Rick, Diane, Cheryl, and Nan were at Condeco on Fredsgatan in Göteborg where we had our recent abortion-rights meetup. Nan made another wonderful poster (see picture) and buttons! We enjoyed meeting two new members, helping them request their ballots, and sharing our back stories and current life situations. Conversation went on for three hours (!) beyond the planned three-hour event! We expect to have another get-out-the-vote (GOTV) event in a month or so.

Tantolunden in Stockholm, SwedenIndependence Day Picnic
It’s been way too long since we’ve been able to get together. So, we’re planning to celebrate Independence Day on Saturday, July 2 from 2pm to 5pm, and we would love to see you there!
It will be a family-friendly picnic — bring your kids, your significant others, and your US-curious friends. It will be a casual gathering, so also your snacks, your drinks, your grills & your picnic blankets.
We will gather at Tantolunden (visible from the outdoor gym & the mini-golf course). It's a big park! See map below for our location (marked with American flag).
We’ll have some games and some info about upcoming opportunities to get out the vote. See you soon!
