Move to Nuclear option (United States Senate)

Hello, I think that the term "nuclear option" is very general, and using Nuclear option to describe this U.S. Senate procedure is undue. --167.58.214.170 (talk) 19:39, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Riddled with Redunancies

This article contains multiple redundancies. For example, it refers to "simple majority" and "three-fifths majority." A majority is a majority. If a greater number of votes is required, that requirement is referred to as a "three-fifths vote" or a "two-thirds vote" respectively.Hansel von Schnitzel (talk) 15:31, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
