"Voters Misled in Alabama's Redrawn 2nd District Primary"
More than 6,000 voters in a newly formed congressional district in Alabama received postcards with incorrect voting information due to a software glitch, raising concerns about potential disenfranchisement in a crucial race to boost Black representation and Democrats' hopes to flip the US House. The error occurred as a result of adjusting to the recent shift in state congressional districts, with affected voters receiving notices and still able to vote for the correct candidates. The redrawn map aims to increase Black voting power, potentially leading to the election of two Black congressional representatives from the state for the first time.
