Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama's last name is spelled "Osama" on hundreds of absentee ballots in New York State, issued in in Rensselaer County.
The "Times Union" says they were mailed to about 300 voters. The Democratic election commissioner has apologized, calling it a terrible mistake. A Republican commissioner says somehow the typo got past three editors.
One annoymous voter called the situation, "a little suspicious and at least grossly incompetent."
The Rensselaer County Legislature is putting forth an investigation into the incident.
