Overall: article is interesting, hooks ALT2 and 3 are my personal favorites. Volunteer staff would be a wikipedia hook, as we should be volunteers, but for the readership... I'll leave it to you. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 15:00, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure about the interestingness of ALT1. All presidential transitions are probably run by some individual and mainpage readers are unlikely to know who Clifford is. I personally think that ALT0 is most interesting, as most presidential transitions nowadays are very professionalized, but ALT2 is also good. (t · c) buidhe 15:31, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
