Yet in Russian elections you have OECD observers and cameras who live streams from the voting booths.

Do you have something similar in America?

Yet in Russian elections you have OECD observers

And those observers conclude things like: the elections "failed to meet many of the commitments and standards that we have. It was not a fair election." and there were "flaws in the secrecy of the vote." "Effectively, we can't say these were fair elections,"

The last presidential election in the US had both OECD and OAS observers. See http://www.businessinsider.com/international-observers-at-us... for example.

According to that article, there have been OECD observers since 2002, though not many.

I'm not from America, I'm from the UK, which while not the top of any democratic indexes has objectively fairly free and fair elections.
