Welcome to the Cambridge Chapter page!
We are an active chapter of Democrats Abroad UK that welcomes everyone living in Cambridge and the surrounding area. Outside of London, we have the highest density of Americans in the UK per capita, with over 30,000 US citizens located in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, and Essex which includes American service members and their families stationed at RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath. Our primary goal is to help keep you informed on events affecting our country and the world and to strongly encourage active participation in the political process that affects them. It is also an opportunity to meet other Americans living in the UK.
Monthly Social – Speakeasy
We hold a monthly social/speakeasy/town hall meeting to meet and discuss politics, plans for future events, or just have a chat.
Before COVID, we held a monthly social/speakeasy at the Cambridge Union 1815 Bar and Cafe . For now, we intend to conduct meetings via a Zoom chat.
Our next meeting will be on the 16th of June 2021 from 7pm – 8pm.
Our guest speaker is Linda Adeson, Co-Chair of the DAUK Get Out the Vote (GOTV) & Voter Registration Committee. She will provide an overview of GOTV and talk about what Democrats Abroad is doing both globally and in the U.K.
The 2022 midterm elections will be here before we know it. All 435 seats in the House and 34 of the 100 seats in the Senate will be contested. Thirty-nine state and territorial gubernatorial and numerous other state and local elections will also be contested.
The Democrats currently have a razor thin majority in both the House and the Senate. It is imperative that we prepare now for the battle to create the stronger Democratic majority in Congress that our country needs. Please join us to discuss what we can do to help.
You can ask questions during the call or if you would like to pose a question to Linda ahead of the meeting, please email [email protected].
