Where on Earth Will YOU vote? LAUNCH tomorrow

Our viral video "Where on Earth will YOU vote?" (with special guest star!) officially launches tomorrow on Monday, August 4, that is when we begin our "Virtual Search Party" !!! to find the hundreds of thousands – some believe millions! -- of missing overseas voters.

We know the missing voters are out there, lost somewhere between Toronto and Timbuktu, and they are not casting ballots.

Help! Join our Virtual Search Party on August 4th: Watch the video! Watch it again!
Send it to everyone you know -- Everyone!



Please, please, please commit to putting the video on the front page of your blog on Monday! We need to make this a huge YouTube viral hit in order to find hundreds of thousands (or millions!) of missing overseas voters.

While your waiting, here's our last silly clip from the green room of our video shoot in Paris. This one from Scarlet and Asha. Says it all really!

Myths "Leave me alone! One vote can't make a difference."

Wrong! Just take a look at recent election results.

Florida 2000: George W. Bush "wins" the state by a margin of 537 votes.

Washington 2004: Democrat Christine Gregoire becomes Governor by just 129 votes.

Ohio 2006: The race for a seat on the Erie County Democratic Committee ends in a dead tie.

Believe us -- every vote matters! Engage and help us find all those missing overseas voters!

Who are we?

While we were taping our upcoming, celebrity viral video (it will be ready for launch on August 4th!), we had a second camera running in another room - just goofing around. In the coming days we'll post some of the clips we got, just to show you who we are, what we're thinking about, and why this election is probably the most important in our lifetime.

Celeste, what did you do last Saturday?

The truth about absentee ballots -- they count!

Living abroad, absentee ballots are a pain in the butt - but they're all we have. And they DO count.

Too often, we hear "Oh, they don't even count absentee ballots unless it's close." WRONG! Every ballot validly cast is counted. That is a fact. Your vote will count whether you cast it in Paris, France, or Paris, Texas.

OK, so it's true that a victor is usually called before every last vote has been tallied. But that's true for hometown voters, too! On election night, the networks are naming winners with just a small fraction of votes counted. Absentee ballots are all counted before an election result can be "certified". Remember the Florida fiasco? The vote count must be certified by the Secretary of State before it is official. That is the law.

Your vote WILL count. And if it's a very close race, the whole world will be waiting to know how YOU voted.

Here's a list of states and when they count their absentee ballots.
