These lunatics need to be locked up in a padded room, not put in charge of the asylum. Hopefully the adults will be back in charge come January.

Exactly. They get no special privileges.

Except maybe some pepper spray to the face.

It should be pointed out that these are INSPECTORS, not observers. Their specific mission is to identify attempts to disenfranchise black and Hispanic voters. They are uninterested in vote fraud.

Hey UN, if you want to “help out” I hear there are starving people dumpster diving in NYC.

Plus, you already know your way around that city.

Bring canned goods, and a can opener.

I don't know why they're complaining, they have their “Republicans suppressing minority voting” report already written. Hanging around at the polls was just a formality.

I might give these folks the time of day when they report on the voter fraud in places like Chicago, Baltimore and Philly.

Call it a hunch, but I don't see that happening.

These so called "observers" can observe the polling places from at least 100 feet away from the building. Anything closer and they will either be arrested or shot.

Since they will be from the UN, I prefer the second option.

“It’s a pretty simple answer: The U.S., as a participating state and founding member of the OSCE, has made certain commitments to allow international observers,” he said. “That said, our observers aren’t there to interfere.”

Well that’s fine. The Federal government can make all of the agreements and commitments it wants but unless it is a ratified treaty state law governs the conduct of elections.

In other words the states can keep your arses out.

Come to my polling place and the UN will see how we treat them and the New Black Panter Party.
