Creating a New Expat Survey

In my ongoing attempt to understand the US diaspora abroad, I want to create a new USA expat poll. My last poll and its results were over a year ago and it was focused quite heavily on my audience¹ This time, I want to focus on US expats for the simple reason that I want to capture one interesting bit of information: what's their US political affiliation? So far it seems skewed away from Republican, but others claim that "Republicans aren't joiners". So I have a twofold goal: design a useful poll and spread it as far and wide as possible. Obviously, internet polls have an inherent bias, but lacking any other way of capturing useful information, I'd rather settle for some rather than none.
This is all a very rough draft and the final poll won't look like this. I would love to have feedback on what I should include or exclude and where I should distribute it.
