Talk:List of The West Wing characters

Title and header
I replaced the article's opening sentences: "This article will be the repository for information regarding characters on the The West Wing (television), so as to remove the plethora of fancruft articles. Please edit and add at will." See Avoid self-references. I also moved the article to Characters on The West Wing, "The" being the first word of the series title. Samaritan 20:00, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Reorg
I did a full reorg of this page and moved the Washington politicians (as well as the cabinet) to the politician's page. The only characters duplicated between the two pages (I hope) are President Bartlet, and the two nominees Matt Santos and Arnold Vinick, since those three have had "picture" series regular status in the show.

Personally, I think the two pages *should* stay separate, for organizational, size, and readability reasons.

As such, I'll remove the "merge" banner.

Santos-McGarry lost the popular vote
This is confirmed in Wikipedia's own article on the 2006 presidential election for The West Wing:

"The actual popular vote totals were never specified, but it can be clearly heard twice that Vinick was winning the popular vote by around a million votes on the TV coverage. Vinick is confirmed to have won the popular vote in the episode "The Last Hurrah" although no margin or total was given." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_West_Wing_presidential_election,_2006)

Therefore, McGarry merely won through the Electoral College, not popularly. It is important that this stub on the character does not mislead readers to believe that McGarry won the election through the popular vote.
