Uh... really? Both sides have engaged in some sort of voter manipulation over the years, last time I seem to remember the Black Panthers being involved in a row about voting in Pennsylvania. But the bigger question is, is it legal for the United Nations to have a presence in our elections? Personally I think this is a very bad sign of things to come, but I'd like to hear others thoughts...
The US and European election systems are so flawed and politicians in general so corrupt, anything that helps can only be a good thing.

I'm with badgerprints on this. Incrementalism. Getting us used to seeing the UN uniforms.
It's not the small amount of voter fraud that's killing us anyway. It's the corruption of the entire system. It's in the "machine" politics; the selection of candidates by political power elites and the crushing of candidates who reflect the people's will. It's the behind-closed-doors treatment of ballots and vote counting. Who's watching all that?
The entire thing is a farce, and the presence of UN monitors--or lack thereof--means not a damn thing. It's a show that's intended to silence critics of the last election; except that it will end up having the opposite effect because it's a show put on by idiots for idiots....

Practically every other nation in the world has stricter regulations regarding voter registration and proper voter identification. For Some reason the US is being held to a different standard... Even Canada requires an I.D. to vote. Why no UN presence there? Ever see voters with permanent inked fingers in foreign lands? That's to ensure that they don't show up to vote twice. It is a free for all in the US and state after state have sought measures to PREVENT fraud only to be shut down time and time again and Obama is helping to shut them down. They were problems in Ohio back in 2008 with same day registration and voting and I expect bigger problems this year.

What you fail to see is that it's a very good idea to have outside observers in American elections.
It may lessen the chances of the Romney camp stealing Ohio and the rest of the country.
And don't lie, Romney supporters. You know damn well that he would do something as despicable as this.

It's pretty sad when we have military all over the world and spend trillions on the rest of the planet but the UN is monitoring our elections.
Just another small step in the effort to eventually subjugate US citizens to UN rule.
