Ontario's official opposition says Hamilton city council candidate Eve Adams has created confusion by sending out an orange-tinted election mail out with an endorsement from an "Andrea Horvath" — not Andrea Horwath, the leader of the NDP. "Andrea Horwath, Leader of the NDP and Leader of Ontario's Official Opposition, has not endorsed Eve Adams' municipal campaign," the statement reads. "By citing an endorsement from an 'Andrea Horvath' in her campaign literature, Ms. Adams has created some confusion about that." Adams, in an exchange on Twitter, told residents that "Andrea Horvath" is actually her sister-in-law, denying a deliberate attempt to mislead voters. "I'd like to apologize to anyone, and especially the Ontario NDP Leader who may have assumed Andrea Horwath was referenced."
