D.C. Misspells Libertarian on Voter Registration Forms

Is spell check a legitimate function of government?

Via Reddit, the District of Columbia voter registration form. In our nation's capital, you can register Democratic, Republican, Green Party, or Liberterian. Though this form is still the version available for download on the D.C. Department of Motor Vehicles site, a spokesperson from the Board of Elections told DCist that the form is "outdated" and no longer distributed. 

Reddit commenters offer some additional fun with D.C. spelling:

Given the way brain-deads and neo-cons see us, we're lucky it wasn't spelled "Lunatic".

Just curious as to the order of the parties. I'm not suggesting they have to be in alphabetical order but I can't see any logical method of how they were sorted. Was it randomly done that way?

Most important to least important, from left to right. Duh.

I was expecting to see "voter" and "form" misspelled as well.

"Capitol" is the building. "Capital" is the city.

Yes, you must vote in front of Congress, apparently.

You'd think a story about misspelling would warrant a proofread.

I *knew* I would screw something up in a post about mistakes. Thanks for finding it!
