I am fully in support of DOJ monitoring the elections.

I just wanted to put that out there. I see a wide variety of threads relating to this. I support it, I wish it were expansive, but I will take what I can get, especially if it exposes anyone. I support it not only where it is in place, but for places it should be, for places it shouldn't be needed (Washington/Oregon), but now, due to corporate control of our elections and voting systems, I support it in every single jurisdiction in the country. Our elections *are* our democracy.

Support UN election monitors as well. Election Integrity is crucial. People need to be able to have confidence in our voting system, or else no longer have a functioning democracy.

I'm not sure that includes magic underpants and multiple wives, but hey, what the fuck.

They should have some undercover G-men at strategic locations ready to pounce on any rethug or teabagger organiztion who intimidates voters, rigs voting and/or tabulation machines, or any other criminal activity.

Then they should bring up the entire GOP on RICO charges.
