'Souvenir Tickets' to 1st Presidential Debate Misspell Candidate's Name
NBC New York ^ | September 26, 2016

Posted on 09/26/2016 5:06:20 PM PDT by SMGFan

Amid the frenetic preparations for the first presidential debate at Hofstra University, there's one thing the school apparently overlooked: how to spell the Democratic candidate's name. "Souvenir tickets" issued to the 350 students for the first Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump debate had one glaring error: Clinton's name was spelled "Hilary," with one L.

Hofstra University spokeswoman Karla Schuster said in a statement emailed to NBC 4 New York, "These tickets are not official tickets to the debate. They were printed at the last minute to create a souvenir for the students. We'll be reprinting them for all those who won tickets."

I was wondering how to misspell Donald Trump. I thought surely this was another Clinton dirty trick.

No big deal, at this point, what difference does it make? She can’t remember or recall what the hell her name is anyway. Never mind trying to spell it.

I’m sure all those students will want to have their debate tickets framed and mounted on their walls once Trump wins the election.

.... Yup .... It’s probably against the school’s policy to point out mistakes to others because it would be considered a serious judgemental Microagression.

After all - it’s not as if they have time to waste teaching outdated skills like spelling or grammar.

I remember it has two L’s because her real name is Hellary.

Actually the real collectable souvenir will be the one with the misspelled name.
