Georgia Offers Lessons With its Elections
By Reps. Alcee Hastings and Lloyd Doggett
Special to Roll Call
We recently had the opportunity to lead as well as participate in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s election observation mission in the Republic of Georgia. While we ultimately determined the elections were a “triumphant step toward democracy,” it also reminded us of the challenges we still face here at home with our very own elections.........
I have just only one comment here - for the current administration of the U.S. government "democracy agneda" is just a part of the "influence game"...
But it is very interesting that the U.S. government and G. W. Bush congratulated Mikheil Saakashvili only after the official announcement of the election results by the CEC, not like his collleagues from Baltic states, Poland, France, Ukraine, Armenia etc...
