Find Three Things Wrong With This Ballot

Posted by Mike DeBonis on Oct. 23, 2008, at 5:56 pm

The following is an absentee ballot mailed to a Ward 2 voter recently, provided to LL by the D.C. Republican Committee:

Here's your three things wrong. When you're in single-member district 2F03, you...

1. Shouldn't be voting for the Ward 6 school board slot
2. Should be voting for the Ward 2 school board slot
3. And should definitely be voting for Ward 2 councilmember

LL awaits comment from the Board of Elections and Ethics.

UPDATE, 5:55 p.m.: WTOP's Mark Segraves posted a full story on the ballot a few minutes ago, complete with comment from BOEE and Ward 2 Councilmember Jack Evans.
