[edit] Debate section coverage incomplete

The current "Debate" section summarizes one of Hillary Clinton's arguments (at length) and none of Barack Obama's. It should probably be filled out a little bit to provide a more balanced summary and also to include any information significant to the Ohio primary. --Bryan H Bell (talk) 03:27, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Delegate count

It is being reported:

that absentee and provisional ballots in Cincinnati adjusted the percentages so as to flip one delegate, making the Ohio totals as 74/67. No change of Green Papers yet. Agricolae (talk) 18:10, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

You might replace the Green Papers link with http://election.cbsnews.com/campaign2008/state.shtml?state=OH and add a note (with reference) to the adjustment. Andareed (talk) 19:53, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, the 'major media' links don't explain why their solution is better than the Green Papers, and the one that does is more hearsay (from the benefiting campaign) than reliable notice. There is a good reason to stick with a single reliable source (GPs) for the numbers rather than picking and choosing, unless there is a solid basis for deviating, and I don't think we have a strong enough source. I just wanted to give a heads up that there may be a change in this vote, thought to be 'a wrap'. Agricolae (talk) 00:58, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
