Says who????? He has vowed not to concede until every vote is recounted. This fiasco is a long ways from being over. Some of the ID requirements are good ideas, but the Dems have stopped that. International observers??? Give me a break. What are they going to do?
Oh yes. . .Mexico. . .show us how its done please. . .
But just yesterday, they were saying George W. Bush stole the election in Mexico!
Actually..that is why so many mexicans cross the border illegally..they want to show Americans how to run clean elections..
Let the spin begin. Here's a related thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1662502/posts
The Mexican Government (as well as the Dems) would howl with displeasure if any or all of these were instituted here.
Where's the barf alert?
Mexican Constitution's Solution to US Immigration Policy

In the continuation of the article it was noted that "a judge prevented Georgia's [new photo ID] law from being implemented." I don't know if it was purely coincidental, but when I was traveling along the Gulf Coast looking at hurricane damage and recovery, I met a Mexican [illegal] who was one of a number working as a painter for a Georgia construction company. His crew was working for this man near Mobile, Ala. If I understood him correctly he is being paid $3 or $4 per hour. I can imagine that the company in Georgia would not want any measures to improve identification if they are getting away with that kind of rip off.
I think the people ripping this author are the same ones demanding picture IDs before voting in this country. Guys, I'm pretty sure this author is on our side. Read the entire article, not just the part that says Mexico does something better than the U.S.
Part of the answer for the US, if it were truly nonpartisan.
Elections here are generally run by the local party hacks and activists. The losing side always wonders to what extent games were played. I wouldn't mind losing an election nearly as much if I could be convinced I lost according to the rules. All it would mean is that I'd have to work harder next time.
Losing due to fraud makes you feel like quitting. (Or possibly blowing something up.)
If America enacted even one of these reforms, the lefties would shout "Racist!" faster than a speeding bullet.
It is a better system but, it seems to have to same end result. Thanks ALGORE!
I wish we took the same precautions.

Which is why, after the governorship was stolen in broad daylight in Washington, I no longer vote. If I vote, I am part of the problem.
