The controversial remote voting idea by American democrats will make the 2020 presidential election the most difficult in decades.
This is stated in the analysis of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights.
The organization’s experts claim that the “integrity of procedures on Election Day” could be jeopardized. In this regard, the Bureau recommends sending 500 observers to the U.S., including 100 long-term and 400 short-term observers. They will be monitoring the voting, which will be “the most difficult in decades”, although not all states agree to allow foreign observers.
As the U.S. presidential election will be held under unprecedented circumstances, “election officials will face serious problems before and on election day”. Analysts believe that the staff of election commissions simply will not be able to cope. Such prospects, according to the report, “may affect the level of trust in the administration of elections, which, in turn, may damage the integrity of procedures on election day and, ultimately, cast doubt on the outcome of the vote.”
According to ODIHR, the U.S. has not implemented the recommendations to improve the electoral system. Some states have tried to implement them locally, but the federal authorities have ignored one of the key organizations protecting democratic institutions.
“You need to have public trust in the system, and the lower that trust, the more it talks about procedures and the state of democracy”, – ODIHR spokeswoman Katya Andrush commented.
As News Front reported earlier, the expert community has repeatedly said that the 2020 elections will be the most controversial in U.S. history. This is due to the fact that both candidates are mired in scandals, and the parties regularly exchange accusations and vilify opponents.
Moreover, taking advantage of the coronavirus, the Democratic Party of the United States is promoting the idea of holding presidential elections by mail. This method of voting provides them with an incredible resource for tampering with results in favor of their highly questionable candidate, Joe Biden.
A study conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that during the 2008 election, 3.9 million voters were prevented from making a legal choice by remote voting – they simply were not sent ballots. Another 2.9 million ballots that were sent out simply disappeared without returning to the electoral commission staff. Finally, another 800,000 ballots were not accepted for a variety of reasons.
