Luisa Loi reports from Island County Elections for the Whidbey News-Times.

No, the South Whidbey School District does not plan to build an aquatic center.

The Island County Auditor’s Office inadvertently printed the wrong explanatory statement for the schools’ replacement levy for educational programs and operations in the Island County voters’ pamphlet.

County officials are mailing corrections to voters in the district, according to a press release published Tuesday….

This isn’t the first time the county has made a similar mistake. Last year, Langley City Council candidate Chris Carlson found out that his candidate statement had been replaced with a statement from Coupeville Mayor Molly Hughes, who was running for reelection. Despite the initial confusion, both Carlson and Hughes won the voters’ favor.
