The 2016 Democratic Party global presidential primary for Democrats Abroad took place on March 1–8, 2016. E-mail, fax, and postal voting were carried out from January 11 to March 8, while in-person voting took place from March 1–8. Results were released on March 21.

Global Presidential Primary

Voters may only vote once for a presidential candidate: either through Democrats Abroad, or through their home state. Those who vote in the Democrats Abroad Global Presidential Primary may continue to participate in their home state's primary or caucus for all other candidates for the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives, and also for state and local elections and ballot measures, but they cannot vote twice for a presidential candidate.

Candidates

Four candidates and an "uncommitted" option were printed on the Global Presidential Primary ballot PDF file, in the following name and sorting format:[1]

Key: Withdrew

Candidates
Hillary Clinton
Roque "Rocky" De La Fuente
Martin J. O'Malley
Bernie Sanders

Forum

A "Global Town Hall" online videoconference was held on February 21.[2] The Sanders and Clinton campaigns participated. De La Fuente never appeared on the list of participants, and O'Malley withdrew from the race after the Iowa caucus on February 1.

The Clinton campaign was represented by Jake Sullivan and Madeleine Albright[3][4][5] as Clinton was absent from the town hall and attended a private fundraiser instead.[6][7]

The Sanders campaign was represented by Bernie Sanders.[8]

Local gatherings

Wellington, New Zealand cast the "First in the World" votes at midnight on Super Tuesday, March 1.[9] A total of 28 ballots were cast: 21 for Sanders, 6 for Clinton, and 1 spoiled ballot.[10][11]

In Singapore, Democrats Abroad held a voting session on March 7, hosting a Super Tuesday presentation[12] by KKR Director of Asia Pacific Public Affairs,[13] Steven Okun,[14] who under President Bill Clinton had served as Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Transportation.[15]

Voting centers

A number of cities hosted walk-in voting centers, and an official list of locations and open hours were made available as of February 6.[16]

Provisional results

Provisional results were the ballot counts for individual walk-in voting centers. Ballots sent by post, fax, and e-mail were not included.

Problems

Voting center cancellation

The scheduled March 1 voting location in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, was cancelled without prior notice. On March 3, the organizers posted an apology on Facebook.[53]

Invalidation of ballots

The Global Council of Democrats Abroad may be invalidating all ballots from the March 5 voting center in Moscow, Russia. This is due to the event being held at a different location than the location on the official list of voting centers.[54]

E-mail voting failure

The email system for accepting ballots was down for several hours on March 7, due to the system exceeding its daily bandwidth limit[55][56][57] of 4000 MB at FastMail.[58]

Results

Postal mail ballots were to be dated no later than March 8, and were collected until 6 PM local time on March 13.[1] The results of all ballots was scheduled for March 21.[59]

Democrats Abroad will send 21 delegates (13 pledged, 8 unpledged/superdelegates) to the 2016 Democratic National Convention.[60] Each of the 8 unpledged delegates will cast a 1/2 vote, for a total of 4 delegate votes (21 pledged and unpledged delegates, 17 delegate votes).[61]

The results were released on March 21[62]
