Pretty rare, but confusion made it happen near here last year:
Came deadline for petitions, and there were none, for the candidates had been
given a wrong date.
So EVERY voter had to writein to vote for their choice for that office.
There was a recent race in San Diego, CA where a write-in candidate won by
the vote count but was then disqualified by a judge on some technicality
of paperwork. Of course that's just THE MAN keeping us down, eh?
