A local ABC affiliate station in Pennsylvania apologized this week after “test results” for the Nov. 5 presidential election “mistakenly appeared” on Sunday during a broadcast.

In a statement published on its website on Sunday, WNEP-TV said the numbers showed up on the channel’s broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix on Sunday evening and were not “reflective of any actual vote count.”
