California election officials plan to send out postcards fixing a labeling mistake in voter information booklets distributed for the upcoming Nov. 4 special election, in which residents will decide on redrawing boundaries for U.S. House seats.

The correction effort, revealed by the California Secretary of State’s office on Sept. 29, comes with a potential price tag in the millions, further inflating expenses for a ballot contest already projected to run up a tab of about $284 million statewide.
