Delaware Gov. Jack Markell and/or his staffers had to hit the “delete” button today, and somebody probably had some explaining to do.
Here’s the tweet that was sent out from the account of Gov. Markell, a Democrat, via Politwoops:
That’s definitely not the governor.
The explanation?
Markell spokesman says photo link was mistakenly altered, linking to racy photo. "We just wish the accidental link had been a cat video."

Undoubtedly.
Update:
Woman purportedly shown in deleted @GovernorMarkell tweet calls it an ‘honest accident’
Update:
Earlier photo was tweeted bc link was accidentally changed during upload, resulting in random, unrelated pic. Wish link was to cat video.

Guessing he’s not the only one wishing that.
