The 2020 Democrats Abroad primary ran from March 3 to March 10, 2020, a global vote during the Democratic Party presidential primaries for the 2020 U.S. election allowing American citizens living outside the United States to participate in the nomination process.
The Democrats Abroad party-run primary awards 21 delegates towards the 2020 Democratic National Convention, holding 17 votes, of which 13 are pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the process.
Results of the primary will be announced on Monday, March 23, 2020.[1]
Procedure
The Democrats Abroad party-run global primary runs from March 3 (Super Tuesday) to March 10, 2020, at hundreds of voting centers around the world.[2] Votes may also be cast by fax, email, or post.
Democrats Abroad allows same-day registration for voters participating in the Global Presidential Primary. Voters may register in-person or by signing up at https://www.democratsabroad.org/join.
Eligibility: Voters must meet the following criteria to vote[3]
- Be abroad and be a U.S. citizen
- Be a member of Democrats Abroad
- Be 18 as of November 3, 2020
- Not have voted, nor plan to vote, in any other 2020 state presidential primary
Voters abroad may also vote by downloading a ballot and emailing or postal mailing it to Democrats Abroad from February 18, 2020. Ballots must be received prior to 12:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on March 11, 2020. No proxy voting is permitted.
Candidates must meet a threshold of 15 percent in order to be allocated pledged delegates to the National Convention. The 13 pledged delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention will be allocated proportionally on the basis of the results of the party-run primary, also classified as a caucus, including one party leader and elected official (PLEO delegate). These delegate totals do not account for potential bonus delegates or penalties.[4]
Regional conventions will be held for the Americas, Asia-Pacific, and Europe-Middle East-Africa regions on Friday, May 15 and Saturday, May 16, 2020, selecting 9 national convention delegates, with the number each region is eligible to designate dependent on the proportion of ballots within each region. Between Saturday, May 16 and Sunday, May 17, 2020, the global convention will meet to elect a sole pledged PLEO delegate and 3 at-large delegates to send to the Democratic National Convention. The 13 pledged delegates Democrats Abroad sends to the national convention will be joined by 8 automatic delegates who each have a half vote (i.e., 4 automatic delegate votes).[4]
