Do we think the statements, "However, they were all in the South," and "in a case that reverberated into 2006," are at all politically neutral? Verdad 12:19, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • My intention in saying "they were all in the South" was to point out that the open seats were generally in fairly red states that Republicans would be more likely to hold even without the advantages of incumbency (that is, not as likely to switch as Republican open seats in New England or Democratic open seats in the South or the prairies would be). I did think the New Hampshire comments were a bit of a stretch...you're welcome to make adjustments to either. Willhsmit 19:15, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]



In the statement "Minnesota: Sen. Paul Wellstone (D-MN), in the middle of a tough fight against former St. Paul Mayor Norm Coleman, abruptly died in a plane crash " the word abruptly seems unnecessary. Either there is another concept which the word abruptly is pointing to, or the word abruptly is redundant (plane crashes by their nature happen without preparation or warning.)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of United States Senate elections, 2002's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 22:02, 17 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
