Election observers from the OSCE are watching midterm elections across the country.

At the VPR - Vermont PBS U.S. Senate debate, there were two election observers present. They were from an international organization called the OSCE, or the Organization for Security and Co-Operation in Europe. They send observers to elections in all participating nation states, and representatives from the organization have been watching many aspects of the midterm elections around the U.S.

Vermont Edition spoke to Thomas Rymer, spokesperson for the OSCE's Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights, the election observation division, about the organization, the observers and their mission.
