The Republican National Committee has apologized for inaccuracies in a mailer sent recently to Montana voters that could have resulted in votes coming in too late to count.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the RNC said steps are being taken to rectify the situation.
“We regret the unintentional error we made in a recent mailing. We are contacting all voters who received the mailing through live phone calls starting today and we are sending new mailers to each voter providing clarification,” said RNC spokesperson Miki Carver.
The mailer incorrectly stated that absentee ballots could be postmarked in Montana and still be counted if received after election day.
In Montana, all ballots must be received by 8 p.m. Mountain Time on Election Day, which is Nov. 6.
