The Post Office blundered when it printed polling cards with the wrong information.

They were sent to voters in Onchan ahead of next week’s commissioners election.

It will pay for new ones to be reissued today (Friday) after the first batch were for the House of Keys, rather than the local authority and said that people could vote for two candidates.

The Post Office is asking voters to throw the incorrect cards away.

The contest, which will take place on October 22 between Kim Corlett and David Quirk.
