Countdown to the midterms: Three weeks before Election Day
Fox News contributor Richard Fowler and Executive Director of Senate Working Group James Kimmey discuss President Biden's comments about the economy and what issues Americans are focused on ahead of the midterm elections on 'Fox News @ Night.'
Officials in one California county said that a system error is to blame for roughly 5,000 duplicate ballots being mailed to residents throughout the area.
The computer error was identified in Riverside County over the weekend, and according to FOX 11, around 5,000 duplicate ballots were sent to residents of several towns.
Riverside County Registrar of Voters Rebecca Spencer said that the duplicate ballots were mailed out due to a computer system error that was corrected.
"It is important to note that none of the duplicate ballots will result in a voter being able to cast more than one ballot," Spencer said. "I take election integrity seriously and apologize for the inconvenience."
