Dick Gephardt

I changed the description of Dick Gephardt in the caption under his picture from former minority leader to former majority leader because even though he was more recently a minority leader, majority leader is a higher position. Soxrock24 (talk) 04:41, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Ohio court disclosures

Is this a credible source? If so, it seems the article needs to be updated to cite this source: New Court Filing Reveals How the 2004 Ohio Presidential Election Was Hacked. WilliamKF (talk) 16:06, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Bad data in table of popular vote counts by state

It seems that the data in the by-state tally is incorrect.

The button for the link: http://www.fec.gov/pubrec/fe2004/federalelections2004.pdf states: "Note also: Official Federal Election Commission Report, with the latest, most final, and complete vote totals available."

For Arkansas, the table lists 573,182 votes for Bush, but the FEC report (p.27) at the link I mention lists 572,898 votes for Bush. There are discrepancies for Illinois also.

Is there an explanation for these apparent errors?

Thanks.CountMacula (talk) 02:54, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
