AZ Voting Document Lists WRONG Election Date in Spanish, not English

http://www.buzzfeed.com/jtes/arizona-voting-document-lists-incorrect-election-d

A Maricopa County Department of Elections spokeswoman told ABC News less than 50 people received the incorrect document, which was attached to updated voter registration cards. “It’s an honest mistake," she said.
The date was listed as Nov. 6 in English, but Nov. 8 in Spanish.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity, but don't rule out malice.

not much more believable, but you could see someone make that mistake.

Mistaking the numerals 6 and 8 is impossible to believe and explain away, sorry Maricopa County Elections folks.
