The Carter Center — which has monitored more than 100 foreign elections for fairness and honesty since 1989 — will ask, for the first time, that U.S. election officials allow observers to watch this year’s presidential voting.

In a press release issued Friday by the center, CEO Paige Alexander said, “Given the scale of problems today — including deep polarization, lack of confidence in elections, obstacles to participation by minority groups and others, persistent racial injustice, and the COVID-19 pandemic — the center has decided that it should try to improve elections here at home, drawing on its global experience observing troubled elections and its knowledge of international standards.”

Carter Center officials provided no additional details.

5. My "your" was in reference to the Carter Center not to you.

I have supported Stacey Abrams Fair Fight and her run for Gov.

7. My comment was meant for anyone who read

the reply. It is a challenge for everyone to support Fair Fight. Sorry, brer cat, if it seemed like I was calling you out. We're all in this together. Didn't mean to sound snippy.

4. I wonder about the 'additional details.'

I was hoping the Carter Center would monitor the elections. It may be they're planning to and don't want to say so too early because of any possible pushback.
