Overview

• A printed map in the official guide mislabeled Congressional District 27 as District 22, while the online guide displays the correct labeling.
• Secretary of State Shirley Weber said the faulty version reached roughly 8 million registered voters before printing plates were corrected for subsequent mailings.
• Weber emphasized the issue is a labeling error that does not affect proposed districts, ballots, or the election process.
• Postcards will alert recipients and local jurisdictions have been asked to update information, with total remediation costs still being finalized.
• Sources told KCRA the fix will cost at least $2 million, and Weber said $3 million to $4 million could be borne by the Legislative Analyst’s Office, as the Nov. 4 special election itself is budgeted at roughly $280–$284 million.
