Since most of the problems took place in Dim districts, he must mean Dim Florida election officials.
Voter intimidation in the guise of election monitoring.
Nothing like Al Sharpton to scare aware those who don't bow down to the Democratic party.
I can see it now. "Bush? Yes, that's spelled K-E-R-R-Y"
These folks are crazy. My God, they just can't let it go.
Are they going to also assure that voters registered in two states get the opportunity to VOTE TWICE???
Oh, this is only a primary, gee, that's no fun.
I'm in Florida and I want them out of here.
The DIMS did exactly want they planned in 2000. They have been doing this type of thing for years. They KNOW the voting systems are flawed and they like it that way. They will always be assured of the abiblity to CLAIM that they were "disenfranchised" by the "system".
They also need to have monitors there so that all of the votes cast by the "dead" people and criminals will be counted.
What are the DIM officials doing to stop the 46,000 double voters from New York are stopped? That would be ...NOTHING!
Then maybe they won't object if the Klan sends election monitors to Philadelphia, St. Louis, and Detroit.
We're the ones who should be sending in the monitors:

Maybe they should just tell the voters which "Brown" to vote for when they bus them in. < /disgusting >
Concerns have been raised because some minorities and dead people have been prevented from casting both votes.
If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
If one did not know better one would think McFumer ... aka ... Mr. Not Relevant, would want those like the former Democrat Elections Supervisor Miriam Oliphant and others of her ilk to be watched very carefully.
Who dat ... who say who dat ... when I say who dat?

Monitoring the elections
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- It was an historic and precedent-setting election. Minnesota and New Jersey changed ballots at the last minute to accommodate one senator's death and another's ego; a record $900 million was spent on television advertising; Election Day marked the "end" of soft money in national politics; South Carolina selected its first new senator since before a man walked on the moon; Californians Loretta and Linda Sanchez became the first sisters elected to Congress; a husband and wife ran against each other for a Kansas judgeship; and thanks to a computer meltdown by the Voter News Service, network television anchors were forced to use reporting skills rather than reading computer-generated results from a Teleprompter.
It was the first time this century that a Republican president helped the party pick up congressional seats in a midterm election. Floridians didn't appreciate Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe's guarantee that "Jeb is gone" and for the first time in the state's history re-elected a Republican governor to a second term. Maryland voters snubbed a Kennedy, selecting Rep. Robert Erlich as their first Republican governor since Spiro Agnew. And in Georgia, Republicans not only defeated incumbent Sen. Max Cleland but, in a stunning upset, also claimed the governor's mansion for the first time since Reconstruction.
Republicans had quality candidates responsibly addressing important issues, which voters appreciated. But there was a national theme this Election Day as well, and it was a referendum on the leadership of one man -- George W. Bush. The public overwhelmingly demanded those who pledged to help President Bush advance his agenda of national defense and domestic security through the Congress. In short, it was a glorious day. I only wish that one of the networks had aired an Ozzy Osbourne-like Election Night reality television show from the home of Jumpin' Jimmy Jeffords -- the man who abandoned his party 16 months ago for some short-lived perks.
But America did suffer at least one black eye this past Election Day. It came in Florida, where, for the first time in the history of the greatest democracy in the world, international observers sat in judgment of an American election. And given the support Americans gave our president and his Republican colleagues, I bet they didn't like what they witnessed.
The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) dispatched election monitors to oversee Florida polling stations and "assess the improvements in the electoral process after the 2000 elections in Florida," as OSCE administrator Hrair Balian announced in a letter to the Florida secretary of state's office.
How did we get to the point where foreigners look over the shoulders of American citizens as they cast their ballots for governor, senator, representative or city councilman? When the Washington Times' Audrey Hudson tried to find out, she was referred from the State Department to the State of Florida to the House of Representatives and back again. Fred Gedrich, a senior policy analyst at Freedom Alliance, called the OSCE in Warsaw and was referred elsewhere. Such is how the New World Order operates: It observes and dictates to us, but we dare not ask questions about it.
We do know that the OSCE sent observers from Russia, Bosnia, Albania and Switzerland to Florida. An outgrowth of the 1975 Helsinki Accords that monitored human rights abuses behind the Iron Curtain, the OSCE was "reinvented" after the Cold War and now sends election-observer missions to such far-flung places as Bosnia, Serbia, Slovakia, Skopje, Montenegro and other struggling nations. After Tajikistan held parliamentary elections in February 2000, OSCE reported that the voting had been neither free nor fair.
But Tajikistan is itself one of OSCE's 55 member nations, as are such exemplars of democracy as Belarus and Uzbekistan. London Sunday Telegraph reporter Marcus Warren described Belarus, led by "its eccentric president, Alexander Lukashenka," as a place that has shown "the rest of Europe how not to manage reforms." Meanwhile, Radio Free Europe reported that OSCE didn't even bother sending election monitors to cover Uzbekistan's presidential election in January 2000 because the voting was rigged to favor President Islam Karimov.
Yet these are the people who dare to pass judgment on American elections. After suffering two years of Al Gore's lawsuits, media analysis and Democrat complaints about the 2000 election, shouldn't Florida's voters have been spared the presence of election overseers from countries that spawned the likes of Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Joseph Stalin and Jacques Chirac? Florida Gov. Jeb Bush thinks so. On my radio show, he said it was an "embarrassment."
What does Russia have to teach the United States about democracy? What legitimacy do foreign observers have in judging American elections? Who invited the OSCE to Florida? And, most importantly, who is going to defend American sovereignty by ending such nonsense?
Newly elected Republicans should add these questions to their agenda, or the next time they face re-election, they may be scrutinized by international organizations that ignore actual menaces like Saddam Hussein in order to gang up on America and elected officials willing to defend her.
I think it's now time to take away the NAACP tax exempt status.
The AshcroftJustice Dept has been monitoring elections ever since the 2000 presidential election. Mfumeissofullashit his eyes are brown!

"ELECTION NEWS 2002
"Justice: Observers to watch elections in Florida, 13 other states
By CURT ANDERSON
Associated Press Writer
"WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Justice Department is dispatching more than 400 people to monitor polling places in 14 states, including Florida, on Election Day to ensure compliance with federal voting laws. The observers will be watching for any signs of discrimination based on race or problems encountered by the disabled, as well as whether all eligible voters are able to cast a ballot. Widespread voting problems were reported in 2000, particularly in Florida where the results delayed by a month the declaration of a presidential winner.
In all, 432 observers, including 108 Justice Department lawyers and other personnel, will monitor elections in 26 counties. Courts have ordered federal observers in seven counties, with another eight assigned observers because they are in areas covered specifically by the Voting Rights Act. These counties are: Apache and Navajo in Arizona; Randolph, Georgia; Wayne, Michigan; Adams and Amite, Mississippi; Passaic, New Jersey; Bernalillo, Cibola, Sandoval and Socorro, New Mexico; Kings and New York, New York; Titus, Texas; and San Juan, Utah.
These observers, sent by the federal Office of Personnel Management, will be overseen by 38 Justice Department officials who will maintain contacts with local election officials should problems surface.
Seventy other Justice Department officials, most of them civil rights attorneys, will monitor elections in: San Francisco; Waterbury, Conn.; Broward, Duval, Miami-Dade, Orange and Osceola counties, Fla.; St. Louis; San Juan County, N. M.; Queens County, N.Y.; and Reading, Penn.
Complaints about possible discrimination in voting can be made to the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division at 1-800-253-3931"
".
These "monitors" will be well armed -- with 10,000 cartons of cigarettes and 12 old buses.
I think someone should be observing Mfume and his boys. It wouldn't surprise me to see them try something crooked.
