Global monitors find faults
The observers said they had less access to polls than in Kazakhstan, that the electronic voting had fewer fail-safes than in Venezuela, that the ballots were not so simple as in the Republic of Georgia and that no other country had such a complex national election system.

Foreign monitors barred from some US polling stations: OSCE observer
Their visit has raised the anger of conservative US commentators and politicians, angry that the US electoral process would be scrutinized like an election in Ukraine or Azerbaijan.

I prefer analogizing US to Afghanistan, myself. But what the hell, Bush can't spell either of them.
