Politico reports:
The New York City Campaign Finance Board sent out over 3.5 million voter guides that incorrectly stated — twice — Mayor Eric Adams would appear on the Democratic primary ballot next month. He is actually skipping his party’s primary to run in November as an independent.
The “2025 Primary Election Voter Guide” was mailed to 3,523,795 voters in the city starting May 19, about a month before the June 24 primary, according to Campaign Finance Board spokesperson Amy Lebowitz. The packets were printed in 14 different languages with 96 editions, and each voter guide contained the errors.
The board also told POLITICO it will be fast-tracking additional mailers to all registered Democrats in the city with a corrected list of mayoral primary candidates. It did not provide a cost for the corrective measure.
