@User:Marquardtika - Greetings! I understand you had a concern that a politician's news release is not a "reliable source" for the statement about Reschenthaler's refusal to certify the 2020 election results. So I found a reliable news source to support that statement and restored the language in re-written form. If you'd like information about the source I found, you can find it here. Cordially, BuzzWeiser196 (talk) 14:42, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
His refusal to certify the election results was already contained, appropriately, in the "Tenure" section ("Reschenthaler, who represents the southwest corner of Pennsylvania, was one of 147 Republican representatives and senators to vote against certifying the presidential election results.") You added it again to the section on his 2020 election, which doesn't really make sense. It's redundant with info already in the article, and not the correct section of the article for this content to be in anyway. The Pennsylvania Capital-Star is also a dubious source as it is part of the States Newsroom. Marquardtika (talk) 14:51, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Marquardtika: There are two issues here: 1. Reliable source: States Newsrooms may be left-leaning, but so are plenty of reputable sources, like the NY Times and Washington Post. It's non-partisan, so it's certainly more reliable than a politician's news release. If you can find a better reliable source, I invite you to cite it. But please do not delete Reschenthaler's refusal to certify his own state's results. It needs to be mentioned. It's part of a broader partisan pattern to his behavior. He also refused to certify results in other swing states, and the national election as a whole. 2. Tenure section vs. 2020 election section: the language in the Tenure section was about his refusal to certify the national results, not about his tenure. So I took it out of Tenure and put it in 2020 election results. Seems reasonable to me. BuzzWeiser196 (talk) 15:18, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am saddened by the fact that this military veteran is a traitor. Not only did he vote not to certify the election, he also voted to support Trump during the impeachments. On his web page it says that his allegiance is the USA. It should read, party over country. He should not be reelected. It's obvious to me that his constituents doesn't pay attention, or they too are part over country. 24.209.41.72 (talk) 19:00, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
