The Board says more than 500,000 voters have requested mail-in ballots.

To correct the error, all mail-in voters will be sent a replacement ballot, plus a postcard explaining the mistake and requesting that you destroy the previous ballot and envelope and wait for the new one.

According to the Board, this error affects only voters who were mailed a ballot before May 14th. Replacement Ballots will be mailed starting this week.
