message: Senator Ratliff was never "acting" Lt. Governor. He was elected by the Senate to succeed Governor Perry, after Gov. Bush took office as President. Though not elected by the public, S. Ratliff was fully empowered as Lt. Gov. SteveHopson 18:59, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I removed the Businesspeople category from Dewhurst since he is notable more for being a politician than a businessman. Please feel free to comment if you don't agree — Bellhalla 16:02, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Just wondering why someone had removed the picture... Kind of puzzling, I just periodically check this page because I had wrote him an email seeing if he or his volunteers would update the page.. I have updated it some myself *shrugs* Species2112 14:40, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I've added references to the other candidates in the 2010 election. Previously, only the Democratic candidate (Linda Chavez-Thompson) was listed, but both the Libertarian and the Green Party also have candidates in that election, and if we're going to list one opponent it seems correct to list all of them.

message: This is why quality bios try to avoid these type of sections.
Unless we have RSs that claim that the subject was involved in hacking the time stamp, ect, then this doesn't belong in the bio. --Malerooster (talk) 01:43, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

message: I've added a "lead too long" tag because there is too much electoral detail in the introductory section. We shouldn't be recapping vote counts in the introduction. Tucsontammy (talk) 04:33, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
