All voters in Nassau County, regardless of party registration, were mailed voter information cards identifying them as registered Democrats. But the cards were sent in error and did not actually change any voter’s party registration.
Because of a printing error, about half a million voters who were registered Republicans or had other party affiliations were identified as Democrats on the cards.
This led some Twitter users to say this meant that voting officials had turned hundreds of thousands of Nassau County Republicans into Democrats. The printing mistake, by vendor Phoenix Graphics, was real, but it did not change anyone’s partisan affiliation. The office of Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman told PolitiFact New York that Nassau County was immediately notified about the error, worked to fix it and investigated how the mistake happened.
In New York, only registered Democrats can vote in Democratic primaries and only registered Republicans can vote in Republican primaries.Featured Fact-check
