California Secretary of State retweeted
During the last two elections, when the federal government deployed election monitors, we responded by sending our own election observers — to ensure that voters felt safe, that the law was followed, and that no one was discouraged from casting a ballot. We once again have election observers on the ground today, in partnership with @CASOSVote.
