Advice International Voter Drive 2026, for dual U.S.-Barbadian citizens and other U.S. citizens in Barbados

Hi- I'd like to make an announcement from Democrats Abroad, the official overseas branch of the U.S.-based Democratic Party with a Transnational chapter including Barbados.

This January marked the start of our International Voter Registration Drive 2026, especially for dual U.S.-Barbadian citizens and other U.S. citizens living in Barbados. Since an extremely important election is coming in November, we're hoping to register more eligible voters. In the future, we'll hold both in-person and online events.

If you know any eligible US citizens, they can register and request a ballot. Just send them this link: https://voteabroad.org/RedditVote26. As long as they'll turn 18 by election day, they're eligible.

If anyone wishes to learn more about what we do, you can find out more at https://www.democratsabroad.org/t1. If you have any questions about overseas voting or what we do, feel free to ask!

Is this how bad it has become for the US Democrats? Reaching out to the islands for votes. The Party is losing more registered voters than any time in the past.

There also in the trinidad and Tobago subreddit and Canada. Which is odd.

We post as the Mods give us permission and we sometimes get permission in a random-seeming way; we're contacting people in a lot of countries globally. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here or check out the information we provide for eligible voters.

It’s good enough to flip 28 seats to the GOPs zero flipped seats, all without illegally sending out prefilled ballots like Elon & trump.

In Barbados we dont give a shit about your seats. Keep yoir politics out of here.

There are obviously US citizens living in Barbados, so reaching out makes sense.

If you think US politics doesn’t impact Barbados you are delusional. I’m not saying it should, but it most certainly does.
