AE

the prime responsibility for this, even as the paragraph says, is not Sampson but Hikind. putting it here is excess weight. I consider it a BLP violation, and I would remove it, except that I see my colleague Will has let it stay. it. I think it wrong nonetheless, unless it is sourced to him having a specific important role. DGG ( talk ) 02:12, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

The infobox says that Sampson stopped being Senate Democratic Leader on 12-31-10 and began as Senate Minority Leader on 1-3-11. No sources are offered. The two-day gap doesn't make sense to me. I suspect that one of these dates is incorrect. Does anyone have any insight? SunCrow (talk) 18:22, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
