DALLAS — Test results for the upcoming Nov. 5 general election mistakenly appeared on WFAA early Sunday morning. Those numbers should not have appeared on the screen, and it was an error by WFAA.
The numbers on the screen were randomly generated test results sent out to help news stations ensure graphic sizing and make sure their equipment is working in advance of election night.
The Alabama state test numbers on the screen were not reflective of any vote count. WFAA regrets the error and apologizes for any confusion. We have taken steps to ensure this does not happen again.
