: Hi
:
: A year ago I put up a message about the
: Overseas Vote Foundation. This is a
: non-partisan, non-profit, public charity
: that is committed to non-partisan overseas
: voter outreach and reigstration of overseas
: American citizens, State Department
: employees and active duty uniformed service
: members and their accompanying families to
: ensure greater overseas voter
: enfranchisement for US elections.
:
: I have been working as a volunteer
: representative tor the OVF here in Australia
: for the past year, trying to help other
: expat / business transfer American citizens
: to ensure they are able to register to vote
: in US state and federal elections.
:
: As the US federal election year is soon to
: be upon us, with some of the numerous state
: primaries already set to occur early in the
: New Year, American voters may wish to
: participate even if they are now residing in
: Sydney / Australia. It is entirely possible
: for Americans residing outside the USA to be
: registered to vote in US elections, and any
: US citizen is able to register for and vote
: in US elections if they wish to vote.
:
: In the past months OVF has been working to
: streamline and improve the online voter
: registration website to make it a completely
: integrated suite of voter services for
: overseas and Uniformed Services voters.
: This website will help anyone interested in
: registering to vote and will help answer any
: questions that may arise about how to go
: about registering to vote in US elections
: for any US state or territory where they
: were originally registered to vote, or if
: they have not previously registered.
:
: Go to http://wwwoverseasvotefoundation.org/
: and follow the links. This site will assist
: completion of the US government generated
: registration forms, and it will give
: appropriate information to help voters
: ensure they become registered to vote while
: residing outside the US during any future US
: elections.
:
: If anyone has any questions, please feel
: free to contact me on nicholas_marshall1 at
