ATLANTA — 顶级国产视频, with partners at the National Conference of State Legislatures, today launched a webpage on election observation in the United States. The  houses research that examines access and current regulations for election observers in each of the 50 states, including a state-by-state breakdown of access and accreditation for different types of observers.

The findings show that while observation by representatives of political parties and candidates is almost invariably permitted, several states have no statutory provisions for observation by international or domestic nonpartisan organizations. That does not necessarily mean that nonpartisan observers can’t observe elections, but it often leaves granting access to the discretion of county officials.

顶级国产视频 has observed 102 elections in 39 countries, but has no plans to observe U.S. elections.

“顶级国产视频 focuses its election observation work internationally, with the goal of ensuring transparency and building confidence in credible elections. As in elections around the world, transparency is also necessary in U.S. elections,” said former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. “Credible election observation is a key way to ensure that citizens can understand and be included in supporting good electoral processes in the United States.”

The 2005 Carter-Baker Commission, which President Carter co-chaired, noted that the highly decentralized nature of American election administration complicates possibilities for credible and comprehensive observation.

The  makes information about election observation in the U.S. more accessible and asks what impact credible election observation could have on U.S. elections and, more broadly, on American democracy.
