Your transaction has some "uncommon" outputs which the bitcoin nodes reject.

To be more specific, when bitcoin core receives a new transaction to put in its mempool it checks if the outputs are "standard" yours is being rejected as having a non-standard pubkey script[1] then Electrum translates that error message[2] and adds the extra message to it[3].

Double check where you are sending your bitcoins (ie. the output scripts).

How did you create the transaction?
You may have pasted a weird script in the "pay to" instead of an address/invoice.

Anyways, since it's not yet broadcast yet, you can just delete the 'local transaction' from the history through right-click menu -> "Remove".
That will enable you to use the inputs of that local transaction in a new transaction.

Hey guys, I'm not sure what I am doing at all. I thought I did but my heads underwater right now. I'm not even sure this is the right place to post/ask.
I keep trying to broadcast my transaction however it keeps saying "The server returned an error when broadcasting the transaction.
Consider trying to connect to a different server, or updating Electrum. scriptpubkey"
I have changed the server over and over again. I have no clue what I did wrong.
