It is part of a larger strategy built around dominating cyberspace and exercising power over minds instead of bodies. A critical discourse analysis of OFBJP.org shows the priorities of the organization. It is built around recreating the hierarchy of the BJP and playing on migrants’ emotional attachment to India to compel them to donate money and invest in the country in exchange for cultural capital. In doing so, it helps (re)produce a particular vision of India.

  • The History of Military Voting
    CALTECH/MIT VOTING TECHNOLOGY PROJECT A multi-disciplinary, collaborative project of the California Institute of Technology – Pasadena, California 91125 and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology – Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 MILITARY VOTING AND THE LAW: PROCEDURAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS TO THE BALLOT TRANSIT PROBLEM R. Michael Alvarez Caltech Thad E. Hall, Brian F. Roberts University of Utah Key words: overseas voting, military voting, military voter participation, ballot transit VTP WORKING PAPER #53 March 2007 During the 2000 presidential election controversy in Florida, the ballots submitted by individuals living overseas—especially military voters—were seen as crucial to the election outcome as the margin of potential victory was so small that these ballots could turn the election from one candidate to the other. Headlines at the time noted that “Odds Against Gore Absentee Gains: Republican-Leaning Counties Appear to Have More Uncounted Overseas Ballots,”1 “Bush Lead Swells with Overseas Votes,”2 “Military Ballot Review is Urged,”3 And “How Bush Took Florida: Mining the Overseas Absentee Vote.”4 For many Americans, however, the controversy surrounding the votes of military personnel and overseas voters, despite its importance, may have seemed both bewildering and esoteric. The debate centered on minute details; whether or not certain overseas absentee ballots were valid and could therefore be counted if they lacked postmarks, were received within given time periods, had missing signature or were deficient in other statutorily required characteristics, that are beyond the interest of the typical individual. However, several key legal skirmishes were fought within the broader context of the recount battle concerning whether certain absentee ballots could be counted, the resolution of which could have swayed the outcome of the 2000 presidential election.5 Issues of equal protection, 1 Keating, Dan and John Mintz.

  • America's Overseas Voters: 2016'S Forgotten Constituency?
    AMERICA’S OVERSEAS VOTERS: 2016’S FORGOTTEN CONSTITUENCY? Halbert Jones and Patrick Andelic Rothermere American Institute The 2016 U.S. presidential campaign has proven one of the most unpredictable in recent decades, largely due to the unpopularity of both major party candidates, historically high levels of undecided voters, and unusually high support for third party candidates. Though Democrat Hillary Clinton appears to have opened a clear lead over her Republican opponent Donald Trump since the first presidential debate in late September, analyst Nate Silver has noted that ‘the polls have been considerably more volatile this year than in 2012.’1 Indeed, while most observers now consider a Clinton victory to be highly probable, some polls indicate that the race remains tight, even after what have widely been seen as significant reverses for the Republican nominee’s campaign in the past few weeks.2 Moreover, recent unexpected outcomes in elections and referenda in different parts of the world have served as a reminder that the conventional wisdom about the likelihood of a particular result can be proven wrong when the votes are counted. In such a climate, neither party can take anything for granted. As the race enters its final weeks, and with control of not just the White House but also the Senate and the House of Representatives in contention, candidates and parties are scrambling to ensure that their supporters turn out to vote. At this critical juncture, one bloc that that may still be underestimated is also one of the largest: American voters living overseas. 1 Nate Silver, “Election Update: Where the Race Stands Heading Into the First Debate,” FiveThirtyEight, 25 September 2016, http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/election-update-where-the-race-stands-heading-into-the- first-debate/, accessed 4 October 2016.

    REPUBLICANS OVERSEAS September 1, 2020 HAND-DELIVERED Mark R. Meadows Assistant to the President and Chief of Staff The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 RE: Executive Order Tax Regulatory Relief for Overseas Americans Dear Mark: At the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, representatives of Republicans Overseas discussed with you the plight of more than 9 million Americans living overseas who are being harmed by the consequences of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) implemented during the Obama-Biden Administration. This statute has caused immeasurable harm to loyal American citizens residing abroad, as you learned during the landmark hearings that you organized as Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Government Operations in April 2017. Today, overseas Americans are not only seeing their lives embittered by FATCA, but as an unintended result of the President’s Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017, they find themselves subject to new taxes and an even more onerous set of compliance obligations. President Trump recently signed a series of Executive Orders designed to alleviate the burdens imposed by the payroll tax and other federal regulations administered by the Treasury Department and the IRS. Republicans Overseas applauds the President’s initiatives given the Democrats’ intransigence and political opportunism. We propose that the President sign Executive Orders to relieve the suffering of overseas Americans in a manner that is fully in line with your America First agenda and with the RNC 2016 Platform. The implementation in 2010 of FATCA has made it impossible for many overseas Americans to live a normal life.

(ACA). ACA is a Washington, DC based, non-partisan, non-profit section 501(c)(4) representing the interests of Americans living and working overseas. Alongside of ACA is our sister entity, American Citizens Global Foundation (ACAGF), a non-profit section 501(c)(3) educational and research organization. Recently you indicated support of the overseas Americans community during this time of COVID through proposed legislation to assist with repatriation—return of individuals to the US—and efforts to ensure the ability to vote from overseas: (https://www.markey.senate.gov/news/press- releases/senator-markey-and-rep-castro-announce-legislation-to-expand-protections-for-american- citizens-overseas-during-coronavirus-pandemic and https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=B3FECA87-DE2D-4CF0- BDF5-9C13D4972E44). We applaud these efforts to help Americans overseas who wish to repatriate and to guarantee those living and working overseas their right to vote in the upcoming elections, however, it should not take a time of crisis or a pandemic for Congress to turn its attention to overseas Americans.
