This year dems are actually investing in get out the vote for democrats abroad
DNC Invests Six Figures into Democrats Abroad to get out the vote

Also fun fact the democrats abroad have an offical mastodon account
My good friend who is dual citizen living in France has been freaking out about this election. He's only one of many abroad, but he's definitely not sitting this one out.
I live in Canada and not only did I receive 3 phone calls, but also 3 pieces of mail making sure to vote. By the third/call letter, I asked them to please not waste their time because I had already sent my vote in for Michigan :D Their energy and time could be spent on other calls/mail. :)
I live in Canada and am not a US citizen and somehow I receive requests addressed to someone named Buck to support Ted Cruz.
I don't know how much I'd rely on Americans abroad as a voting bloc, though. From my own experience as one such person, you're just as likely to have people who want positive outcomes in the US as negative ones.
A lot of expats might maintain ties to the US and still care about American issues, but I know a heck of a lot of them don't care at all. A lot of Americans left the US because they hate it there and might even prefer it if the election makes things worse. Not that such people would be likely to vote anyways, but you're not going to find consistent voting trends from people living abroad, even if as a sum they are greater than the margin of error of some elections.
Overseas voters abroad generally lean heavily democratic by around a D+60 margin
Almost as if travel and new experiences can tend to broaden one's mind…
I live overseas, and we've all been talking about the massive provoting presence there is this year. Can't think of the last video I watched with ads that didn't ask me to vote.
