Exactly three months before the November election, Democrats Abroad Berlin will be meeting to plan our local mobilization efforts.

Tune in on Tuesday, August 4, 2020 to our August meeting “Organizing to Win” to learn more and get involved with phonebanking, tabling, flyering, and voter assistance. With over 22,000 U.S. citizens registered living in Berlin, we’ve got our work cut out for us.

If you or a friend need help registering to vote, drop in every Sunday for direct one-on-one help. In Berlin, we’re also hosting Vote From Abroad Office Hours on Wed. August 12, 2020.

Our August Pub Quiz on Wed. August 19th, will help us raise funds to reach out to American voters all over Germany. Mark your calendar for a night of trivia fun and a good cause.

In this email, we have an update from the 2020 convention, brand new Democrats Abroad and Vote from Abroad gear, and as always, lots of online events and ways to get involved. See you on Tuesday!

Request Your Absentee Ballot Today!

We’re just about 3 months from the 2020 election. If you haven’t registered to vote and requested your absentee ballot this year, it’s time. Make sure to do it now so there’s time for your ballot to get here and to travel back to the U.S.

Visit VoteFromAbroad.org to complete a ballot request — and then send in that request!

You can help more Americans vote from abroad!

We’re hosting virtual office hours to assist voters with registering and requesting absentee ballots (dates and times below).

You can learn how to help at one of our voter registration trainings! The more voter registration volunteers and phone bankers, the higher the overseas turnout in November will be.
