Americans Living Abroad- Time To Register To Vote!

Hi all, just a reminder that if you are a US citizen living outside the US, you have the right to vote in the election. You need to register though, and every state's laws are a little different, but fortunately there is a really nice website that can walk you through it: votefromabroad.org (As far as I know, you need to register every year you vote by absentee, even if you already registered in previous years.)

Some states allow you to vote by email, and other states require fax or physically mailing your ballot back. Also, we're not anywhere close to the deadline for registering to vote in the general election, but if you want to vote in the primaries, you'll have to check the information for your state to find out deadlines for that.

The site, votefromabroad.org, is created by Democrats Abroad, but the site itself is non-partisan. (Though if you don't want to use this site, you can google "FPCA" and find other sites which will also give you the information on how to vote.)
