A virgin voter. And an oh-so-experienced director.

My Mom's American, but I grew up abroad.

OK, you got us. Overseas voting is easy, but there's one grey area. And this is it: children of US citizens who have never lived in the US.

A number of states -- 17 at last count -- clearly allow such children to vote using the last address of their American parent(s). The rest of the states are silent. They don't say one way or the other. So, what should you do?

Go to VoteFromAbroad.org and request an absentee ballot using the voting address of your American parent(s). In the comments section, explain your situation. Wait a couple of weeks and call to see if they received and accepted your request.

If they refuse it, let us know. Recently, one such voter was refused a ballot in New Hampshire. Democrats Abroad stepped in and New Hampshire has now changed its policy!





Here's another silly clip we shot alongside our upcoming viral video (which will be ready for launch on August 4th!).

Sheppard Pepper is American, but he grew up in Paris. He just turned 18 and will be voting for the first time... from abroad. If you like his clip, give him a poke!

Shep is the son of our award-winning Director, Jaci Judelson. Jaci has made videos with skateboarder Tony Hawk, jazz singer Dianne Reeves and choreographer Mark Morris. Check out her work for clients like Mercedes. Nokia and Match.com.
