I cleared out a lot of names that got added without any sources. --GBVrallyCI 01:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

''I deleted Ben Affleck's name. Among other reasons, there was no source.'' —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.91.92.158 (talk • contribs).
 * I removed Jim Gilmore's name from the list because he is running for pres. If u disagree, i would love to disgust it on my web page.Politics rule8:16pm EST.- 4/17/2007

A new Ramussen Poll Has Warner leading Gilmore 57%-37%....could someone put this in?[] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.37.169.190 (talk) 22:05, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Buchanan, Allen, etc.
Buchanan is sourced, but not very reliably, at the following:

i agree with the decision to remove he and allen, as allen is also hard to find a source; comment re sen. warner was not NPOV. Journalist1983 01:38, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

OK, do we take this seriously? First off, a search on the name doesn't turn up any sort of political career. Second, the user adding the information, would appear to be directly involved. Are there any official filings we can go by to determine if a candidate is legitimately in the running? --StuffOfInterest 21:40, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, if he files with the state, them yes. I believe you need a certain number of signatures by a date in January. I'd like a third party source really soon to keep it up. I think the Foundation trying to get attention for the brain damage cause and a bill in the Senate right now, and not really to challenge Warner.--Patrick Ѻ 00:46, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

As an aside, the foundation might be violating U.S. election/tax law. As far as I am aware, non-profits can't engage in partisan political activities, much less endorse a candidate, and his announcement is on his JMA website with his logo on it. Journalist1983 21:27, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * What is the process for picking the Democratic nominee? 129.174.91.115 (talk) 16:32, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Delegates from across the state meet and try to get a majority of votes for a single candidate. I believe Warner was unanimously elected --Ram Astra (talk) 04:37, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Polling
I have a question about polling. Should the data reflect any "leaners", because I don't see why it shouldn't (or perhaps we could have an additional column reflecting leaners). Is there any official Wiki policy/guideline in regards to this? --Ram Astra (talk) 18:31, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Images
Just a heads up, Mark Warner has thousands of usable images uploaded on his Flickr site from the whole length of the campaign if these ever need to change.--Patrick «» 06:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Past Tense
There are a lot of words that weren't updated after the election, and thus assume that the election is still going on. We should change themSaberwolf116 (talk) 21:59, 28 November 2008 (UTC) Started this.--AndersW (talk) 02:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
