Vicki Hansen Thackray, from the executive committee of Democrats Abroad, was our final speaker. She spoke about the task that they have to represent and promote Democratic values while also defending American foreign policy decisions. The number of Democrats living abroad outnumbers those who vote in some states and their contribution is a valuable, but often unnoticed, part of the electoral process. .[1]
