Nearly 600 Floyd County voters received incorrect ballots

What happened

Nearly 600 Floyd County voters received incorrect ballots, Indiana Public Media reported. The report identifies the affected voters as residents of Floyd County, but does not identify the election or the specific problem with the ballots.

What remains unclear

The available details do not establish whether the ballots were mailed, issued in person or connected to a particular contest. They also do not state whether voters were asked to return the ballots, receive replacements or take another step.

Why the process matters

Ballot errors can require election officials to give voters clear instructions about what to do next. For Floyd County voters affected by this incident, the key questions are whether replacement ballots are being issued, how voters can confirm that their ballots are correct and whether any deadline applies.

Indiana Public Media’s report is the source for the count of nearly 600 affected voters. No primary election record is linked here.
