The 2020 Democrats Abroad Presidential Primary took place from March 3 to 10, 2020, allowing U.S. citizens residing outside the United States and those officially affiliated with Democrats Abroad to participate in the Democratic Party's 2020 presidential nomination process.[1] Spanning more than 230 voting locations worldwide, participants cast their in-person votes across various countries and continents. Alternative voting methods included e-mail and postal mail. The voting period started on Super Tuesday and concluded the Tuesday of the following week.[2] The 2020 Democrats Abroad Global Primary allocated a total of 21 delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention. Among these, 13 were pledged delegates, committed to supporting a specific candidate based on primary results, each holding a full vote. Additionally, 8 automatic delegates, unbound to any candidate and each possessing a half vote, contributed to a cumulative total of 17 votes.

The official results were announced on 23 March 2020. U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders emerged as the victor, with a strong showing with approximately 58% of the vote, resulting in the allocation of 9 delegates. Former Vice President Joe Biden garnered nearly 23% of the vote, translating in the allocation of 4 delegates. Meanwhile, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, despite formally withdrawing from the presidential race two days after Super Tuesday, earned around 14% of the vote, falling short of the mandated 15% threshold for delegate allocation.[3]
