"Barack Osama" Appears On New York Ballot

I try to stay away from the political fray for fear that my blog will run haywire on the subject, but this ballot on the right with "Barack Osama" comes out of New York, as per Capitol Confidential.

In Rensselaer County, just north of Albany, the absentee ballot you see was sent to 300 people. You can view the entire ballot here: /osama_absentee.pdf

I'll be nice and agree that that is one ugly typo.

The blog might be considered a form of attorney advertising in accordance with New York rules going into effect February 1, 2007 (22 NYCRR 1200.1, et. seq.) As of July 14, 2008, Law.com became an advertiser, as you can see in the sidebar. Law.com does not control the editorial content of the blog in any way.

Throughout the blog as it develops, you may see examples of cases we have handled, or cases from others, that are used for illustrative purposes. Since all cases are different, and legal authority may change from year to year, it is important to remember that prior results in any particular case do not guarantee or predict similar outcomes with respect to any future matter, including yours, in which any lawyer or law firm may be retained.

Some of the commentary may be become outdated. Some might be a minority opinion, or simply wrong. No reader should consider this site (or any other) to be authoritative, and if a legal issue is presented, the reader should contact an attorney of his or her own choosing for advice.

Finally, we are not responsible for the comments of others that may be added to this site.
