Stamford, Conn. residents may have received incorrect voting information in the mail. Here's what to know.
STAMFORD, Conn. — Efforts are underway in Stamford, Connecticut to send corrected information to voters about their polling places.
A software glitch is being blamed for a misprinted mailing that could send voters to the wrong polling site.
The city says the double-sided postcards have two different polling locations listed. The location listed on the side of the postcard with the recipient's name and address is correct; the location listed on the side of the postcard with the city seal should be ignored.
Reprinted postcards are expected to be mailed out Wednesday. Stamford officials say the reprints will be made and sent out at no cost to the city.
Voters can also verify their polling location on Stamford's website.
