Sen. Barack Obama's name misspelled on 2,000 Florida ballots (Wizbang Politics)

Don't look at me. I don't live in Volusia County.

The new year has barely begun, but things are already getting confusing at the Volusia County Supervisor of Elections Office.
The office sent out more than 2,000 Volusia County absentee ballots with a presidential candidate's name misspelled. Their ballots read "Barak Obama." The Democratic U.S. senator from Illinois spells his first name "Barack."

Supervisor of Elections Ann McFall announced the discovery of the misspelled name last week and said all future ballots will spell the name correctly. She also said that voting equipment will still be able to read the ballots, and that votes for "Barak Obama" will count toward Barack Obama

Remembering someone in Hillary Clinton's campaign felt the need to attack Obama's kindergarten record, I wouldn't put it beneath someone challenging ballots in Volusia County because of the misspelling. Call this Presidential politics version of 'silly season'.
