The United Nations-affiliated Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe will deploy election monitors around the United States on Election Day in an effort to monitor conservative groups for voter suppression or intimidation at polling places.

Led by Ambassador Daan Everts, the election monitors will include a total of 57 international experts and observers — 13 placed in Washington, D.C. and 44 placed at polling places on other cities.

Additionally, “the mission will meet with representatives from relevant federal and state authorities and political parties, as well as with candidates, and with representatives from the judiciary, civil society and the media.”

While the international organization has assessed elections since 2002 and insists that U.S. authorities have “invited” this mission, the U.N. affiliate received significant pressure from liberal organizations such as The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, the ACLU and the NAACP.

According to The Hill, the groups penned a letter to Ambassador Daan Everts this month to express concerns about “a coordinated political effort to disenfranchise millions of Americans — particularly traditionally disenfranchised groups like minorities.”  The groups also met with Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe representatives in Washington Tuesday to further express this fear.

“We attended their meeting, we took note of the issued they raised and we asked our observers in the field to follow up on them,” said OSCE spokeswoman Giovanna Maiola in an e-mailed statement to The Hill.

The liberal U.S. organizations complained about voter ID laws and early voting restrictions, which they believe may negatively affect minorities, low-income Americans, the elderly and women. They specifically requested election monitors be sent to Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Ohio and Texas.

Most of those states passed new voter restriction laws in the months leading up to the presidential election, meeting with differing levels of success in the courts.

In Pennsylvania, a judge concluded a new law requiring photo identification to vote was non-discriminatory and reasonable, but ruled that it could not be enforced in time for the November 6 election. In Florida, the state succeeded in purging voter rolls of non-citizens and reducing the early voting period, but judges blocked provisions restricting voter registration.

The Obama campaign prevailed in Wisconsin and Ohio, with the Wisconsin Supreme Court refusing to review a Republican-backed voter ID law that was invalidated by lower courts. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal of Ohio’s plan to limit an extension of early voting deadlines for military voters only.

Foreign observers are granted selective access to polling stations in the U.S., forcing organizations like OSCE to rely on being granted permission from state and local officials to monitor polling places. OCSE plans to publish its initial findings November 7, one day after the election, with a final report on the entire electoral process coming two months later.

From seanlinnanel: I encountered this organization in Bosnia – they are sinister, they are very powerful politically, and they have the ability to shut down an election and declare it invalid. More to follow - S.L.

My mission in Bosnia involved living in a house out in the ‘ville, meeting with all kinds of people and striking up conversations. One of these people was a young Englishman with the OSCE. He explained to me that he was a “Human Rights Lawyer” and that an issue he was primarily concerned with was gun control.

I responded, “Isn’t gun control contrary to human rights? Isn’t the right to self-defense a primary human right? Look around you, these people were rounded up and slaughtered wholesale BECAUSE they couldn’t get their hands on weapons to defend themselves.

Needless to say, we did not have much to discuss after that.

Look up OSCE on wikipedia and it’s right there in the opening paragraph:The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) is the world’s largest security-oriented intergovernmental organization. Its mandate includes issues such as arms control and the promotion of human rights, freedom of the press and fair elections.

OK I did a little homework and learned that this UN-backed goonsquad has been monitoring US elections since 2002; a knee jerk to the 2000 election dilemma, no doubt – the Euros were all bent out of shape over George Bush prevailing over High Priest of Climate Change Al Gore.

OK so they’re monitoring our elections, looking for voter suppression activities – funny how we didn’t hear a peep from them about the New Black Panthers Party voter-suppression activities in the 2008 elections.

OK that’s ancient history – in any case it’s been alerted on, charges were filed and then subsequently dropped by Eric Holder’s Justice Department. What about some of THESE voting irregularities?

If you know that the OSCE will be in your state, contact your Attorney General and tell them that Texas AG is refusing the UN from monitoring Presidential elections in Texas.  If they are up for election, they will be easy to find.
