[edit] My reformatting

I reformatted the list of candidates for each office to emphasize the candidates still in the running. The changes should be pretty straightforward, but here's what I did and why.

The main thing was to first list the remaining candidates separately (those on the November ballot, including Libertarians). I also bolded the winner in the lists of primary candidates and gave the primary a separate subhead -- since it's still relevant but not as much as the current field. I removed the text giving the November lineup, since it would now be redundant and it also excluded Libertarians, who are legally candidates with just as much ballot status as Rs or Ds. Finally, for offices without contested primaries, I removed the party breakdown and just used the single-sentence summary of the November ballot.

I hope this makes this page easier to use. Please change as needed or put any concerns here. --SuperNova |T|C| 06:00, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I've updated with results and used the election template. I hope the info is easy to read. Akubhai 15:31, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
