Overview
- The ballots mistakenly listed 'Tom Walz' instead of 'Tim Walz,' the Democratic vice presidential nominee.
- Palm Beach County's elections supervisor, Wendy Sartory Link, attributed the error to an unauthorized manual change by a vendor.
- The mistake was discovered within 18 hours, and affected voters were promptly notified to download updated ballots.
- The error involved only 257 electronic ballots sent to military and overseas voters.
- Link assured that the error will not affect the proper tabulation of votes, and all intended votes for the Democratic ticket will be counted accurately.
