Tonight is the roll call at the Democratic National Convention! DA will be announced after Connecticut!

Take a listen to see what Day 1 of the Convention was like, and what Elizabeth Neil Voss is looking forward to the rest of this week!

THIS WEEK'S SHOW
Boutique Theatre Basel's upcoming production in September is W***y Russell's stage comedy «Educating Rita». Actors Natalie Müller and Fred Zimmerman joined us to talk about the play.

Liz Voss, chair of the Basel chapter of Democrats Abroad Switzerland, is at the Democratic Convention in Chicago. She told us all about her experience and about how to make sure you can vote as an American abroad.

Tune in to on tonight to hear all about 's first day at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago!

Just two Illinois-voting DACH ladies at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago! 😍👯‍♀️

Elizabeth Neil Voss is on the floor at the DNC!

Have you checked in with your US American friends to make sure they've requested their ballots?

Do you know any US American 17 year olds who will be 18 by November 5, 2024? They can register to vote NOW and participate in this year's election!

Not a lot to say; just trying to beat the heat!

Be sure to request your ballot and stay hydrated ✅🚰

Today the Zürich chapter is hosting a fundraiser.

All of and is staffed by unpaid volunteers. We are a Swiss Verein (Association) without any dues, so all of our funding comes from donations.

Advertising (and everything else!) is expensive in Switzerland, so election years require a lot of donations so that we can Get Out the Vote!

Not everyone has the capacity to volunteer their time, so if that applies to you, please consider supporting DACH financially!

Sometimes one forgets to post a few days of a countdown... Sorry about that!

But we're back and ready to go! Lots of voter registration opportunities coming up, whether you want to volunteer or if you need to request your ballot. Check out our Upcoming Events in our Linktr.ee to see when we'll be having an event near you!

Ninety days and counting!

Liz is a long-time volunteer for DA Switzerland, having been a national and chapter leader for the past 7 years, as well as attending regional and global meetings. She's excited to return to her home state and participate in this year's Democratic National Convention!

Posted • DA delegates are so excited to head to Chicago for the to work with other parties to elect Democrats up and down the ballot in November! To learn more about Liz and other delegates, go to https://www.democratsabroad.org/2024_dnc_delegation

Sunday Funday includes voter registration, right?!

Saturday To Do List:

2. Eat breakfast.
3. Check your voter registration status.

Check in with your US American friends: Have they requested their ballots? Have they verified their registration is up to date? We know some states love to purge their voter rolls, so you can't be too careful!

Ballot day is next month! Make sure you're prepared by registering to vote or requesting your ballot today!

US politics impact the whole world, so if you have US American friends living in Switzerland (or elsewhere), make sure they visit VoteFromAbroad.org and request their ballot for this year's elections!

After you submitted your Federal Postcard Application (the official form used by US citizens living abroad to register to vote or request their ballot), did you check in with your Local Election Officer to make sure your form was received and processed?

Go to VoteFromAbroad.org/states to find your LEO's contact information. This year's election is too important to leave anything to chance!
