Democrats Abroad, an association for Democratic expats, plans to hold a global primary in which Americans abroad can cast votes for the Democrat they'd like to see nominated. A lot of the votes will be cast on the Internet, though there will be some actual polling places scattered throughout the world as well. According to the article, the global primary will select 22 delegates to the Democratic National Convention this August. It's a fascinating reminder of globalization's effect on American politics. You could even say the world is ... flat? (Hey, that's pretty catchy!) (HT: Shanghaiist.)
