During a fund raising event in Virginia in May 2007 Obama told donors,
{{Cquote|This week will there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died. An entire town destroyed.<ref>[http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,271357,00.html Transcript: 'Special Report with Brit Hume,' May 9, 2007], retrieved from ''FOX News'', 06/13/07.</ref>}}
Obama evidently was misinformed, whereas in reality the tornado which touched down in Kansas he spoke of cost the lives of 9 people in the town of Greensburg, and 12 overall in Kansas.
