there has been all sorts of message board activity related to UN observers in this election process, so as is our usual program, we sought out to get some facts on this matter.

 We have been hearing some stories about United Nations representatives
 monitoring/observing in Sacramento county during this election. As is
 usually the case, there is more hyperbole than facts in regards to this.
 Can you tell us if there are any UN related groups that are actually
 scheduled to be monitors in Sac county, and if there are, can you tell
 us where they plan on observing this election.
 
 
 
 Thank you

 Thank you for contacting me about this.  You are correct that the facts
 seem to have gotten distorted on this topic.  The UN occasionally sends
 people to view local election activities to learn about how other
 countries administer elections.  The two people observing California
 elections have already visited Sacramento and may be back in Sacramento
 on election day but at this time that is tentative.   I found these
 visitors to be polite and courteous, interested only in comparing their
 election processes to our processes.
 
 
 
 Sincerely,
 
 Alice Jarboe
