And don't forget Lee Minor & Rita Magnan for write-ins for Justice of the Peace who got missed with being put on the ballot by an oversight.

seems like an error/oversight of this nature should have been rectified prior to election day.

I'm thinking that the ballots had already been printed when it was discovered and too costly to reprint for two names (?)

I've heard that the state doesn't allow ballots to be reprinted.  I'm not sure why.

The party committees provide the slate of candidates for justice of the peace.  Lee and Rita normally run on the Democratic line, and the Democratic committee inadvertently left Lee or Rita off their list.  It will be interesting to see the official results.  There were a lot of write in votes.
