Also scheduled are other former U.S. ambassadors including Bruce Heyman, Suzi LeVine and Norm Eisen, as well as former USAID administrator Gayle Smith.

James Costos, the former U.S. ambassador to Spain and Andorra under President Barack Obama, organized the event along with Haymen, the former U.S. ambassador to Canada, and LeVine, the former U.S. ambassador to Switzerland.

Costos said that they “have put together a great group of folks from various backgrounds, who can speak directly to the critical importance of voting, and how easy it is to do for Americans living abroad, especially those hailing from key swing states, and we also hope to raise a lot of money for the Harris Walz campaign.”

Other speakers scheduled include David Hogg, Alexander Vindman, George Conway, Jess Craven, Robert Hubbell, Simon Rosenberg, David Evangelista, Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin, Scott Dworkin and Scott Galloway.

The event also is promoting voter registration abroad, with millions living outside the U.S. eligible to vote via absentee. According to VoteFromAbroad.org, an estimated 6.5 million citizens abroad were eligible to vote in 2020. Turnout, though, was just 14% of that figure, according to organizers.
