Home News US citizens in Guyana to vote at upcoming presidential elections
United States (US) citizens currently living and/working in Guyana would be able to vote in the upcoming Presidential Elections in their homeland.
This was announced by the US Embassy in Georgetown via a post on its Facebook page on Thursday.
“Attention US Citizens living or working in Guyana! You can vote in the upcoming U.S. Presidential Elections!” the embassy stated.
In order to facilitate this voting process, the embassy’s Consular Team will be hosting a Town Hall meeting on how to register and request an absentee ballot so that these persons can cast their votes from Guyana.
The Town Hall will be held today at the Cara Lodge Hotel in Georgetown from 14:00h.
“Come out to learn about your voting rights, how to register and request a ballot, and tips to ensure your vote counts – no matter where you are in the world!,” the US diplomatic office in Georgetown urged.
US voters will be heading to the polls on November 5 to elect their 47th President – an election that could see the return of former President Donald Trump for a second term or America’s first female president in Vice President Kamala Harris.
Initially set a 2020 rematch with President Joe Biden running for a second term in office alongside his current Vice President. However, the 81-year-old American leader ended his campaign back in July and endorsed Harris, who is now running for the US top office with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her Vice President pick.
