it's been a while since I did a DYK review, so I'm a little rusty :) Article is new enough, long enough, sourced, neutral, and plagiarism-free. Hook is cited and reasonably interesting, and a QPQ has been done. Good to go—excellent work, Kavyansh! I didn't know you had this interest, either... quite multitalented are you. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 23:55, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Well leeky, for how much I like politics, even I get bored seeing those old election statistics, and checking through various sources just to confirm whether some candidate of a random party won 346 votes or 349 votes in Vermont in an election ages ago! So this list is just to take a short break from that series. Created this just a day ago, and guess what! – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 09:41, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Totally hear ya; trawling through scanned-pdf documents of state legislature races is just- not it. Ooh, an FLC! Might take a look :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 03:57, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
