This reads less like an article and more like a campaign ad, with catch phrases and statements lifted entirely from both his personal website as a state senator and from his election site. Not a lot in the way of impartiality here. It should be revised to be less sycophantic and more neutral and factual. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:283:C001:EA09:1506:F8C7:8BF:DE02 (talk) 14:40, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

[edit]It was cited in a newspaper article posted via the publication on Facebook, but Jon698 reverted twice because he says that's not a good source. natemup (talk) 11:54, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- You are not citing a newspaper article. You are citing a Facebook post. You should cite newspaper articles directly. Read the perennial sources page. Jon698 (talk) 18:12, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
- They're not mutually exclusive. It was an article posted on Facebook rather than a website. That much is clear. It's a newspaper's Facebook page and the content is that of an article. natemup (talk) 01:58, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
