News Post cycle 6

Following up on reading this news post I discovered that the OSCE(Organization for Security and Cooperation) foreign corporation sends observers over to look at people at places such as polling sites and rallies. Some states allow it while others don't which makes it seem even weirder. Seems like that could easily be worked around as somebody could pose as a tourist showing up at the rallies. There will be a total off 500 observers which seems like a whopping number, especially compared to the 44 people sent over in the 2012 election. There isn't any info on whether the observers come from one specific country or if they are an international group. It seems like that could definitely stir up heat regarding how people think Russia is interfering with the elections. Russia is aware of that and wanting to avoid accusations by only having 1 person observing the elections, and that one person being a staff member of the company managing the observers. Only 8 states allow observers which makes me think that the 500 spectators are even more unnecessary. Either way, in my opinion there's no reason to send spectators when they could just watch the news.
