On Friday, May 22nd, GlensideLocal.com’s sister site MoreThanTheCurve.com reported on a Democrat in Plymouth Township who received a Republican ballot for Lower Gwynedd for the June 2nd primary. After posting, several others shared in Montgomery County shared a similar experience within the comments.

The Philadelphia Inquirer now reports that the issue impacted 1,984 voters in the county. In the article, the county points to an issue that arose when Independent voters were removed from the list and the list was then rearranged incorrectly. Independent voters do not vote in the primary in Pennsylvania.

The county and printer were able to determine which voters got the wrong ballots and are in the process of sending new ones.
