Here’s a message from AIT:
🇺🇸 In some states, voter registration and ballot request deadlines for the November 2020 are as early as October 5th. Whether you are a first-time voter or have already received ballots and voted absentee in past elections, we recommend that you complete a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) each year to ensure you are able to participate in elections as an overseas absentee voter.
1. voter registration 選民登記
2. ballot request deadline 選票請求截止期限
3. a first-time voter 首投族；首次投票選民
4. Federal Post Card Application 聯邦明信片申請表
5. an overseas absentee voter 海外缺席選民
這是一則來自美國在台協會的訊息：
在某些州，選民登記與選票請求的截止期限為２０２０年１１月，最早為１０月５日。無論您是首投族或曾收到選票卻缺席投票，我們建議您每年完成聯邦明信片申請表，以確保您能用海外缺席選民的身分參與選舉。
