International election observers planning to visit Texas polling places have “full immunity” from being arrested in the United States, the State Department said when discussing a letter from the Texas Attorney General.
“I’m not going to get into any kind of hypothetical situations or predict where this is going to go other than to say we have every expectation that this will be worked out and to state the fact, which is that under U.S. law they are eligible for immunities,” said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. Reporters tried to get her to state explicitly that Texas could not arrest election observers from the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), but Nuland would only reiterate that OSCE observers have full immunity.
Attorney General Greg Abbott, R-Texas, warned OSCE that it “may be a criminal offense for OSCE’s representatives to maintain a presence within 100 feet of a polling place’s entrance,” as The Hill noted.

Thank you everyone for the extremely lively “discussion”.
Praying we all have a very Merry November the 6th
So say the MURDERERS of Ambassador Stevens.
STOP tipping your hand on these issues...JUST DO IT!
prolly just to be a pain in the azz...
No need to arrest them.Just put a pig outside each polling
station. That will send them packing.
And possibly Romney instead of Santorum.
Yeah.
You can’t even get rid of illegal aliens trying to vote inside your borders.
Now shut the hell up and go pay your taxes. Your government is broke.

Here is the link which reveals the names of these UN observers who will have 2 postings each, phase 1 and phase 2. I assume that phase one is to observe the vote and phase 2 is to observe the recount and report on recount irregularities and rioting caused by alleged
Electoral discrimination against minorities so as to be able to have UN intervention
As was accomplished in the Kenya election by Khofi Anan. This resulted in Kenyas’s elected government having to share power with a sub strata of unconstitutional,illegally installed Islamofascists lead by Odinga/Obama’s Orange party.
This is how coupes are organized these days by fascists. Texas is quite right to want nothing to do with them. Many of the places these observers will be present are in swing states.

Almost every day for the last four years, something is revealed that makes me think, that’s got to be the last straw; and now there is the final insult, UN election observers, as if the US was some kind of third-world cess-pit like Zimbabwe.
If Kofi Anan shows his ugly, duplicitous face, THAT would really be the last step into the final nightmare.
TOSS THE UNITED NATIONS OUT OF THE US!
Overheard on 9 May 1940:
“Germany can’t invade us!”
-France
State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland was probably hired by Hillary Clinton. I wonder if she has a 'partner' like Hillary's Huma, if you know what I mean...

And where is the Republican-controlled Congress while all this is underway?
That’s Sumter, not Sumpter.
Not very much of a difference. Like I said, GW Bush was incredibly naive & stupid as a president, and has initiated or laid the groundwork for every one of 0bama’s travesties, begun under GW Bush. Bush has no problem or issue with any big gubmint, socialist or new world order concept, and in fact is an eager proponent of these travesties. Thank you GW Bush for giving us 0bama and the groundwork for all of his failed policies.
Guess who ran Project Vote in Chicago in 1992?
http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/January-1993/Vote-of-Confidence/
But aren't the observers there precisely because of hypothetical voting irregularities i.e. suppression of Marxist Democrats?
I am not argueing Bush the second was a waste. I agreee. However, the differnece on this issue is absolute. Bush said come and learn. Zero is saying come and catch the cheaters in the conservative movement because the USA cannot have free and honest elections. Very big difference.
Feds, First, you make it impossible for us to prevent illegal citezens from voting and then you bring in dictators to make sure we’re following the rules. You’ve got to be kidding!!!
The international observers will be asked and expected to follow all the laws relevant to the voting booth...no more and no less. If you are offended that they aren’t granted some sort of ‘courtesy’ in the name of being polite, too g-d damn bad.
We’ve been offended by you for years..calling us racist, refusing to follow your own immigration laws, suing states burdened by expenses caused by unchecked immigration, allowing non-cotezens the right to vote. I’m so g-d damn mad. Go ‘F’ yourself and take your international observer with you.
OK, I understand your point, and that we both agree GW Bush was a complete waste. However in this case, once again, it reveals the incredibly stupid & naive mindset of GW Bush, to bring in international observers to observe OUR elections, and failing to realize the consequences of that decision. Which is that globalism & socialism & new world order ideology will ALWAYS go to the absolute extreme of tyranny & totalitarianism. Personally I don’t think that GW Bush has a problem with any of this, and for the most part supports 0bama & his policies right down the communist, new world order line.
Good points. I agree. I also knew, when he did not replace the Clitonites, where he stood. But as far I know Bush is not on any ballot anywhere in the USA this election. This election is about stopping the final phase of the fascist take-over of our country.
Sure they can be arrested!
maybe after 24 hours or so in detention, perhaps the State Dept. can request them to be released.
“What enforcement authority does the State Department have?”
They can cut off the highway money? (NOOOO! NOT THAT! ANYTHING BUT THAT!!! I APOLOGIZE!!!! WON’T HAPPEN AGAIN!!!! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!/s;)
Now extend those wrists forward for an on-the-cuff remark.
LOL! It's not tipping your hand, it's a Notice of Intent.
One of those pesky legal things that needs to be done in order to make sure all your cute little duckies are in a row. :-)
Ain’t that the truth!
It is quite likely that in many states, if these observers become “known”, simple citizens who object to their presence will engage them in “conversation” which may escalate into some type of noisy “conflict”. Those observers and the citizens will have to be hauled into town to get “statements” about the altercation, and “disturbing the peace”. Done properly, this procedure will take several hours. Three or so citizens ought to be sufficient to occupy an “observer” for the full day. Citizen may suffer a 25 dollar fine. Observer cost thousands of dollars for zero accomplishment. Rinse, repeat.
Please try to verify this and then post a main article at FR under the “activism” header, whether verified or not.
Texas ain't buyin' it!

His biggest problem is a LOT of people are starting to see right through the #bullshitter-in-chief.
And the MSM can no longer protect him because we bypass them through the social media!
I can’t wait for film of these foreign turds trying to interfere with a local election. Worth a loss of 5,000,000 Obama votes.
Amen to that! Stopping 0dumb0, the fascist communist muzzlim pig is first & foremost the goal for this election!
The noisy “conflict” I think could happen is not a noisy “conversation” conflict, althougn there could be lots of shouting during the conflict.
They are interfering with a lawful election process. They damned well better be arrested.
Screw the incompetent morons at the State Dept.
The State Dept?
who gives a damn what they say?
Arrest them all Texas!!!!! Lock them up and dont let them go untill the election is over for a Month.
Piss on Hillary (The Bitch ) Clinton.
Don’t arrest. Just shoot.
as if the US was some kind of third-world cess-pit like Zimbabwe.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Well, we are on the way to that.Unless the Obummer movement can be stopped.
Isn’t it weird? Observers in Austin Texas? Just like there were in Obama’s Kenya in 2007/2008. Kenya was a test bed for this election. I wonder when the rioters will be called out when Obama loses.The surprise will be that this is not Kenya here.
Like to see the Texas AG tell Hillary, “If you want to try to stop me, why don’t you come to Texas, where we will show you some REAL hospitality....”
“Full immunity”? Will these UN folks be raping and molesting as they do in worn torn and turd world nations?
The United Nations is a horribly corrupt organization of anti-semitic anti-American dictators. No wonder they love Obama in the White Hut.
“...State Dept: Texas can’t arrest international election observers...”
Texas says otherwise.
What a giant middle finger to the UN!! I love it.
When I die, bury me in Texas, Mom... God love ‘em, there’s still AMERICANS there!!!
or they will do what? based on bengazi, the administration is nothing.
We can “detain for questioning” until the polls close.
Works for me...
And yes, I’m completely serious. Nab those little MoFos on sight.
Texas is the wrong state to enter and cause trouble in.
arrest them and lets the courts sort it out
Bingo!
