Iowa has joined Texas in warning international election observers of possible criminal prosecution if they violate state laws and get near polling places on Election Day.

Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz — like Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott last week — on Tuesday threatened Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe election observers with arrest if they came within 300 feet of a polling place’s entrance, in violation of state law. (In Texas, it’s 100 feet.)

In a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Lenari wrote, “The threat of criminal sanctions against OSCE/ODIHR observers is unacceptable. The United States, like all countries in the OSCE, has an obligation to invite ODIHR observers to observe its elections.”


Observe till you turn blue, just obey the law or go to jail. Your choice. Now stop whining and pretending you have any say in the matter.

Actually, most states don't allow people to loiter in the polling places. The only people who should be there are the poll workers and those going to vote. They have no right to be there at all and should be told to leave.

Oldog,

If you're meaning the alleged n-word incident in Rusk county, my county BTW, I did hear that reported this morning. Sounds pretty trivial to me. If accurate, it sounded like abigoted fool mouthed off to a friend and was over-heard by a lady. She shoulda just kicked the jerk in the nuts.
