A call to all Hillary supporters...

I hope that we all will post tomorrow on how it's looking in our own communities. It would be great to know how everyone's voting experience went, and the same for those of us who will be caucusing. My family (the 4 of us) will be caucusing in Denver for Hillary.

I think mine will be on March 15. Definitely will vote for Hillary. She is a great woman and will be a great POTUS. The 11-hour interrogation of her by the Republican-controlled committee truly demonstrated her strengh, skills, perseverance, knowledge of the political world we live in, and toughness.

Not all but some of Sanders' energetic supporters' tactics are scaringly similar to those of Republicans! Why???

Thanks for your votes! May you inspire others to join you tomorrow!

I can let people know how the American Democrats Abroad Global Primary goes when I know those results (http://www.democratsabroad.org/global_presidential_primary), but Maryland, my state of voting residence, doesn't vote until April 26.

As a US citizen who primarily resides abroad but who also pays MD state taxes, I have the option of voting in the Global Primary or in Maryland's state primary, but NOT both, for obvious reasons. They keep track of my votes through my MD county of residence and I specifically registered in-state this year in order to participate in state and local elections. I will still vote by absentee ballot, but my state ballot will have a lot more people on it.

In the Global Primary, the only offices that we can vote for are federal, e.g., President, Senator, and Representative, based on the last address we voted from in the US. I love having the option of voting for more offices because local officeholders are every bit as important as national officeholders. This last fact seems lost on all too many who only pay attention once every four years and then only to who is running for President.

Probably won't be around much during that period, and it will be PAINFUL to not be all wonky, but it'll be great to vote for Hillary.

So please let us know!

Mine's (PA) not until April 26th, so you won't hear my tale until then.
