During opening
Check identification, materials, opening time, readiness, accessibility and procedural controls.
During voting
Observe queues, identity verification, privacy, impartiality, materials handling, complaints and any intimidation.
During counting
Observe closing time, reconciliation, counting, safeguards and result handling as permitted.
Incident reporting
Record who by role, what, when, where, sources, direct evidence, how it was handled, and whom was informed. Distinguish observed fact from allegations. Escalate to the mission coordinator.
