From Mark Dionne comes this article from the Independent in the UK:

Albanian and Russian observers sent to monitor American elections

A high-level delegation of European and North American election observers – including members from Russia and Albania – arrived yesterday for a week-long mission to watch Florida’s mid-term elections, which take place on Tuesday.

Let us hope that our comrades to the east can help us live up to their ideals of democracy.

On the other hand, given that Florida continues to improperly exclude tens of thousands of voters, mainly African-Americans, because they’ve been misidentified as former felons, the chances of the election being fair are nil to begin with.
